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.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive treatise on algebra, designed for use in advanced courses of training. It was written to meet the needs of our Common and High Schools and Academies, and to afford adequate preparation for entering our best Colleges, Schools of Science, and Universities. While the author believes this book provides as extended a course in Algebra as is expedient for the preparatory schools, this volume contains all that these higher schools require. It was deemed necessary to make the work a complete treatise, including the Elements, for purposes of reference, and for reviews, and also in consideration of the fact that our higher institutions have various standards of requirement for admission. The Elementary portion is embraced in the first 150 pages, and contains all the definitions, principles. rules, and demonstrations of the complete school algebra, with an abundant collection of New Examples; but from it all elementary illustrations, explanations, solutions, and suggestions, are omitted. The whole is so arranged as to secure readiness of reference and convenience of review by somewhat mature students. The subjects treated in PART III which constitutes the Advanced Course proper, will be best seen by turning to the Table of Contents. In this place the author wishes merely to call attention to a few of the distinguishing features of this Part. Additionally, the author introduces a short chapter on Loci of Equations, which any one can read even without a knowledge of Elementary Geometry, and which in itself is always interesting to the pupil, and of fundamental use in the subsequent course, where the more abstract principles of the Theory of Equations are illustrated, and the student is thus enabled to see the truth, as well as to demonstrate it abstractly. How great an advantage this is, no experienced teacher needs to be told. In the treatment of the Higher Equations, while some things have been discarded which everybody knows to be worthless, but which have in some way found a place in our textbooks, a far more full and clear discussion of practical principles and methods is given, than is found in any of the treatises in common use. The important but difficult subject of the Discussion of Equations has been reserved till late in the course, for several reasons. Thus, when the pupil reaches this topic, he has become familiar with most of the principles to be applied, and has become sufficiently imbued with the spirit of the algebraic analysis to be enabled to grasp it. To discuss an equation independently and well, is a high mathematical accomplishment,and should not be expected of the tyro. It is nothing else than to think in mathematical formulae, and hence is one of the later products of mathematical study. It is hoped that the position assigned to this subject in the course, and the manner of treating it, will insure better results than we have hitherto been able to obtain. In the selection of Subjects to be Presented, constant regard has been had to the demands of the subsequent mathematical course. This has led to the omission of a number of theorems and methods, which, though well enough in themselves as mere matter of theory, find no practical application in a subsequent course, however extended; and has, at the same time, led to the introduction of not a few things which the advanced student always finds occasion to use, but for which he searches his Algebra in vain, if he has at hand nothing but our common American textbooks. In Method of Treatment the following principles have been kept constantly in mind: 1. That the view presented be in line with the mathematical thinking of to -day. 2. That everything be rigidly demonstrated and amply and clearly illustrated. 3. When long experience has shown that the majority of good students have difficulty in comprehending a subject, special pains should be taken to elucidate it. 4. No principle is thoroughly learned by a pupil until he can apply it and nâ¦. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330033593_0
