Présentation de l'éditeur

WlfcTU ft? LIBRARY PKEFACE XAM very conscious of the delay which has intervened between the announcement of the publication of these Tables and their appearance. This delay has been chiefly due to two causes. First the great labour necessary, which largely fell on those otherwise occupied, and secondly the great expense involved (a) in the calculation of the Tables, and (6) in their publication. This matter of expense is one which my somewhat urgent correspondents, I venture to think, have entirely overlooked. It is perfectly true that only one singleT able in this volume has been directly paid for, but a very large part of the labour of calculation has been done by theS taff of theB iometric Laboratory, whose very existence depends on the generous grant made to that laboratory by theW orshipful Company of Drapers. Our staff is not a large one and it has many duties, so that the progress of calculation has of necessity been slow. Even now I am omitting projected Tables, which I can only hope may be incorporated in a later edition of this work, e.g. Tables of the Incomplete B- and F-functions, and the Table needed to complete Everitt swork on High Values ofT etrachoric rwhen rlies between -SO and 1-00. It would only satisfy my ideal of what these Tables should be, had I been able to throw into one volume with the present special tables, Cl extensive tables of squares, of square roots, of reciprocals and of the natural 1. trigonometric functions tabled to decimals of a degree. Logarithmic tables are relatively little used by the statistician to-day, which is the age of mechanical calculators, and he is perfectly ready to throw aside the fiction that there is any vgain in the cumbersome notation of minutes and seconds of angle a system which would have disappeared long ago, but for the appalling scrapping of jastronomical apparatus it would involve.

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.
