Synopsis

Excerpt from Manual of Logarithms

This Manual is intended to supply a want that has daily become more apparent during many years' experience of preparing pupils for examina tion. In the elementary text-books on Algebra and Trigonometry the subject is treated too shortly for practical purposes, and there is a great scarcity of examples. These failings I have endeavoured to remedy; and, to give the student accuracy and facility in his work, a very large num ber Of examples, over 1300 in all, have been introduced, among which will be found the more important Of those that have been set during the last ten years in the examinations for entrance to Sandhurst, Wool wich, and the Staff College. A few typical examples are worked out at full length in the course of the bookwork to assist the student and spare the tutor. The subject has been treated in connection with Arithmetic, Algebra, Plane Trigonometry, and Mensuration. Notwithstanding the care with which the examples have been worked out, there must neces sarily be. Many errors in a work Of this nature. I shall therefore esteem it a great favour if notification Of these be made either to the publishers or myself.
