Présentation de l'éditeur

American high schools, academies, and normal schools. As indicated by its title, it is intended for those who are taking up the subject a second time with the desire to review and extend the knowledge previously acquired. The purpose of the authors is more fully set forth in the following statement of some of the distinctive features of the book. 2. The applied problems refer to the ordinary commercial life of to-day, or they deal with elementary questions arising in the laboratory, or they are inserted for general information. The fact that tradition has furnished the schools with a mass of inherited puzzles which give a false notion of business, that in an age of science and invention these subjects have found no place in the arithmetics, and that the common graphic methods of representing statistics are not seen in the schools, has not deterred the authors from attempting to modernize the subject. At the same time they believe that the exercises will be found much more straightforward and simple than those with which the average text-book has so long been encumbered. 3. Problems in pure arithmetic in the high school are intended to furnish training in mathematical analysis. This is almost their only justification.
