Synopsis
Excerpt from The Elements of Logarithms: With an Explanation of the Three and Four Place Tables of Logarithmic and Trigonometric Functions
I hope that teachers who are preparing pupils for Harvard College, where logarithms are now required for admission, will find that this volume furnishes them with a satisfactory text-book. The course I would recommend for such students comprises all that precedes the Appendix, except the bracketed portions. Those teachers who have not time to go over so much ground will find it possible to omit also 7, 8. 13, 15. 17, 18. And 43, and perhaps some other sections. Those, on the other band, who are able to exceed the course described above are advised to take up the table of Logarithms of Sums and Differences.
