Présentation de l'éditeur
Mathematics desire to read Mechanics as an introduction to Physics. Those who are acquainted with the elements of Algebra and Geometry will, I think, meet with no serious mathematical difficulty; they may, however, find it convenient to read first the geometrical theorems at the end of Chapter I. Some propositions on the geometry of the ellipse are given in Chapter VI, in order to render the discussion of the law of gravitation more complete. My thanks are due to Mr. J. Walker, M.A., of Christ Church, for his kindness in reading the proof-sheets, and to Professor J. V. Jones, M.A., for many valuable suggestions. A. L. S.
