Synopsis

Still in print more than a century after its 1902 publication, this historic text by two great mathematicians has inspired generations of students and scholars. The original treatment consists of two parts, The Processes of Analysis and The Transcendental Functions; a final chapter, Ellipsoidal Harmonies and Lane's Equations, was added in 1920. An essential work for students of analysis and historians of mathematics and literature.
