Abstract
(1) THE type and diagrams in this book are models of elegance and excellence; evidently no pains have been spared in making both as clear and perfect as possible, and the logarithm tables at the end of the book add greatly to its completeness. One useful feature in them is the table of circular functions with the angles expressed in degrees and decimals of a degree, in addition to the usual table in degrees and minutes. The author also supplies a neat celluloid combined protractor and scale in a pocket attached to the cover.
