A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In the preparation of this book the authors aim has been: (1) To make the transition from arithmetic to algebra as easy and natural as possible, and to arouse the pupils interest by showing him early some of the advantages of algebra over arithmetic. (2) To present the several topics in the order of their simplicity, giving definitions only where they are needed, and insuring clearness of comprehension by an abundance of concrete illustrations and inductive questions. (3) To provide a large, well-chosen, and carefully graded set of exercises, the solution of which will help not only to fix in the pupils mind the principles involved, but also further to unfold those principles. (4) To omit non-essentials, and yet provide a book that fully meets the entrance requirements in elementary algebra of any college or university in this country. A mong other features of this book to which attention is invited are: (1) the careful statement of definitions and principles; (2) the emphasis laid upon translating formulas and equations into verbal language, and vice versa; (3) the inclusion of many formulas from physics which the pupils are asked to solve for the various letters which they contain; and (4) the extensive cross-references, as well as the many hints and suggestions found among the exercises and problems, all calculated to throw sidelights upon the work. On the request of several prominent mathematics teachers the author has put an elementary chapter on quadratic equations (C hap. XII) before the chapters on radicals, imaginaries, and the theory of exponents.
