In original boards The spine is lacking and the volume sits between loose covers Pages uncut at top edge. William Rowan Hamilton (1805-1865) was born in Dublin and spent his childhood in Trim, Co. Meath. He was perhaps Ireland's greatest polymath, He became a professor of Astronomy and took up residence as Director of Dunsink Observatory at Abbotstown aged only 21 in 1826. The invention of quaternions, an extension of complex numbers, is the achievement for which he is most often remembered. Hamilton's first presentation of this work was to the Royal Irish Academy in 1843 and the first note was in the Philosophical Magazine (1844). A full exposition of his ideas, reflective of his lecture of 1843, was not published until this issue. Hamilton in a letter to Professor Augustus De Morgan dated May 7, 1847, writes in part: ."My manuscript researches respecting quaternions and their application to geometry and physics, having attained a considerable extent, and a number of scattered notices (themselves by this time not very small in bulk), having been printed, I am urged by my friends in Dublin, and am myself now desirous, to make at least a beginning of that more full and formal publication which I have all along intended. After many hesitations as to whether I should not at once proceed to the parts which are more likely to interest and not to shock mathematical readers in general, I have decided on following a more historical order; and have handed it to the Committee of Publication of the Royal Irish Academy.
