Abstract
THE author of this very important treatise states, in his preface, that he has attempted to give a sufficiently comprehensive account of the theory of projections to answer the requirements of the ordinary student of this subject. The literature of projections being extensive — the work of the most eminent mathematicians—the author has contented himself with making such extracts from the great mass of papers, memoirs, &c., which he deemed requisite for his purpose, giving, for further information, references to such original sources as are comparatively easy of access.
