Excerpt from An Introduction to Graphical Algebra: For the Use of High Schools
It did not seem desirable to merely suggest in a general way what appears to the author the most desirable change in high-school instruction in order to increase the efficiency of college work. The aim has been rather to show how such changes may be accomplished without radical departures from present methods.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an accessible introduction to graphical algebra, and positions it within the broader field of physical science studies. The author demonstrates how the common equations usually discussed in algebra classes can have physical and geometrical significance, creating a bridge between algebra, geometry, and physics. While the equations are quite simple, the author examines them closely, and provides diagrams and charts to illustrate how a change in one value can change the appearance of the equation when it is graphed. This allows him to show how physical laws can be represented by algebraic or geometric formulas. The resulting insights offer a fresh look at the subject, and a deeper understanding of the interdisciplinary connections between science, geometry, and algebra. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330434734_0
