Abstract
AN editorial preface by Mr. H. P. Young, an appreciative foreword by Dr. Alexander Russell, the usual author's preface, four chapters of elementary ‘pure’ mathematics (complex numbers and calculus), a concise statement of the mathematical relationships of electricity and magnetism in a single comprehensive chapter, and the book may be considered to be about to commence. In Chapters vi and vii we have many diverse ‘applications’. But in Chapters viii and ix we have more ‘pure’ mathematics—more advanced (partial differential) equations and more advanced methods of integration—in fact, with the exception of a few examples in Chapter x, the whole of Chapters viii—xii can be described as pure mathematics. But in Chapters xiii and xiv we have some real practical problems.
