Abstract
Bulletin of the New York Mathematical Society, vol. iii. No. 6. (New York: Macmillan. March, 1894). — Prof. Warkness (pp. 135–141) gives a careful and appreciative abstract of the Cours d'Analyse de l'École Polytechnique, by Camille Jordan, a work commended by Prof. Klein in “The Evanston Colloquium,” and which, in its second edition, is “entièrement refondue.” Three interesting, though short, notes on Permutations (pp. 142–148) are furnished by Prof. F. Morley. They are headed a plea for the chess-board in teaching determinants, a special rule of signs, and the enumeration of positions. There are numerous references to the authorities on the subject. Notes and new publications are full as usual.
