Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The present edition of this volume has been carefully revised and corrected throughout. The principal alterations will be found in the Theory of Series; which has been developed a little in some places, with a view to rendering it more useful to students proceeding to study the Theory ofF unctions. In the interest of the same class of readers, I have added to the chapter on limits a sketch of the modern theory of irrational quantity, one of the most important parts of the purely Arithmetical Theory of Algebraic Quantity, which forms, as the fashion of mathematical thinking now runs, the most widely accepted basis for the great structure of Pure Analysis reared by the masters of our science. I am indebted for proof-reading and for useful criticism to my friends Prof. G. A. Gibson and Mr. C. Tweedie, B.S c. It is but right, however, to add that the careful and intelligent readers of the Pitt Press have rendered the work of correcting the proofs of this volume more of a sinecure than it often is when mathematical works are in question.
