Abstract
BOTH these works by American mathematicians have been, we believe, printed in America, and are now introduced to the attention of English students by Messrs. Macmillan. They are first-class representatives of the good work now being done in this field: we have (NATURE, vol. xvi. p. 21, vol. xxvi. p. 59) already given account of other American mathematical publications.
A Treatise on the Calculus of Variations.
By L. B. Carll. (London: Macmillan, 1885.)
A Text-Book on the Method of Least Squares.
By Mansfield Merriman. (London: Macmillan, 1885.)
