Synopsis
Excerpt from The Number System of Arithmetic and Algebra
Some twenty years of university teaching, and some six or seven years' chairmanship of Public Examination Boards in this university, have convinced the writer of the need, from these two different points of view, for such a book. Part I. Fulfils an undertaking to provide the kind of help that seems to be necessary for teachers, and their pupils, in school work — besides being the necessary foundation of the wider plan. The thesis of Part I. Is that the principles of Arith metic-and-algebra constitute a scheme which is one and indivisible: that algebraic principles are necessary for the understanding of the rules of Arithmetic and that, on the other hand, these principles of Algebra can be properly understood only when applied at every point to the arithmetical facts which form their essential subject-matter.
