Abstract
ALTHOUGH these volumes contain more than a thousand pages, it would be premature to express an opinion upon the plan and proportions of Prof. Forsyth's work as a whole; so much of his vast subject still remains unrepresented. Thus the reader will find nothing, except incidentally, of the theory of partial differential equations; and, what is more remarkable, the subject of ordinary linear equations has been reserved for a future volume. However, the two parts which have now been published are so far complete in themselves that it is possible to give some account of their contents, and to appreciate, to some extent, the author's method and point of view.
Theory of Differential Equations.
By A. R. Forsyth Part i. (1890). Pp. xiv + 340. Part ii. (1900). Pp. xii + 344, and x + 392. (Cambridge: At the University Press.)
