Présentation de l'éditeur

The design of this Treatise is to explain all that is conimonly included in a First Part of A lgebra, In the arrangement of the (hapters I have followed the advice of experienced Teachers. I have carefully abstained from making extracts from books iu common use. The only uork to which I am indebted for any material assistance is the Algebra of the lateD ean Peacock, which I took as the model for the commencement of my Treatise, The Examples, progressive and easy, have been selected from University and College Examination Papers and from oldE nglish, French, and German works. jM uch care has been taken to secure accuracy in the A nswers, but in a collection of more than 2.300 Examples it is to be feared that some errors have yet to be detected. I shall be grateful for having my attention called to them. I have published a book of Miscellaneous Exercises adapted to this work and arranged in a progressive order so as to supply constant practice for the student. I have to express my thanks for the encouragement and advice received by me from many correspondents; and a special acknowledgment is due from me toM r. E. J. Gross of Gonville and Caius College, to whom I am adebted fur assistance in many parts of this work. Tlie Treatise on Algebra by :M r. E. J. Gross is a continuation of this work, and is in some important points supplementary to it. J. HAMBLIN SM irH. Cambridge,
