Présentation de l'éditeur
Many colleges and universities offer an optional examination in Advanced Algebra in addition to the examination in Elementary Algebra required of all candidates for matriculation. The scientific and technical schools have increased from time to time the amount of algebra that must be mastered before students may pass the entrance examinations, until their requirements at present for admission are substantially equal to what is commonly included under Advanced A lgebra. This work is designed to prepare students in a thorough manner to meet both of these tests. The earlier pages of the work are identical with the authors Academic A lgebra, but several of the topics discussed in that book have been modified in treatment or enlarged in scope, so that they may the better meet the requirements of an advanced course, and more than one hundred sixty pages of new matter have been added. Consequently this volume contains a complete course in both elementary and advanced algebra. The treatment is believed to be sufficiently full and rigorous to meet the demands of college courses in algebra, and to give a scholarly basis for specializing in this science. The author desires especially to express his indebtedness toP rofessor J. H. Tanner of theD epartment of Mathematics at Cornell University for valuable suggestions regarding the treatment of several topics. WILLIAM J. MILNE. Statk Normal Colleob, A lbany, N.Y.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
