Book Description
Trieste Publishing has a massive catalogue of classic book titles. Our aim is to provide readers with the highest quality reproductions of fiction and non-fiction literature that has stood the test of time. The many thousands of books in our collection have been sourced from libraries and private collections around the world.The titles that Trieste Publishing has chosen to be part of the collection have been scanned to simulate the original. Our readers see the books the same way that their first readers did decades or a hundred or more years ago. Books from that period are often spoiled by imperfections that did not exist in the original. Imperfections could be in the form of blurred text, photographs, or missing pages. It is highly unlikely that this would occur with one of our books. Our extensive quality control ensures that the readers of Trieste Publishing's books will be delighted with their purchase. Our staff has thoroughly reviewed every page of all the books in the collection, repairing, or if necessary, rejecting titles that are not of the highest quality. This process ensures that the reader of one of Trieste Publishing's titles receives a volume that faithfully reproduces the original, and to the maximum degree possible, gives them the experience of owning the original work.We pride ourselves on not only creating a pathway to an extensive reservoir of books of the finest quality, but also providing value to every one of our readers. Generally, Trieste books are purchased singly - on demand, however they may also be purchased in bulk. Readers interested in bulk purchases are invited to contact us directly to enquire about our tailored bulk rates.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1911 edition. Excerpt: ... THE GROWTH OF ALGEBRAIC SYM- BOLISM By U. G. Mitchell Three Stages in Algebraic Notation. -- About seventy years ago Nesselman1 characterized the historical development of algebraic notation as marked by three stages. (1) Rhetorical algebra, in which problems are solved by a course of logical reasoning expressed entirely in words without the use of abbreviations or algebraic symbols. (2) Syncopated algebra, in which abbreviations are used for some of the operations and quantities which recur most often. (3) Symbolic algebra, in which arbitrary symbols having no apparent connection with the things they represent are employed for all forms and operations. This characterization has proved so helpful and convenient that the terms have gained considerable currency in subsequent writings on the subject. Rhetorical Algebra. -- Although signs for addition, subtraction, and equality are found in the old manuscript of the Egyptian scribe Ahmes2 (cf. note on p. 101) and Aristotle1 represented quantities by letters in stating problems (but not in equations), it is sufficiently accurate for a general classification to characterize as rhetorical all algebra previous to the time of Diophantus of Alexandria, who probably lived in the second half of the third or first part of the fourth century of our era. 1 G. H. F. Nesselman, Die Algebra der Oriechen (Berlin, 1842), pp. 302-306. a Cantob, Vorlesungen ueber Geschichte der Mathematik, vol. I (1894 edition), p. 87. V, Among writers of rhetorical algebra whose works appeared after the time of Diophantus may be mentioned the Eastern Arabs, the Western Arabs previous to the thirteenth century, and the early Italian writers including Leonardo of Pisa (1180-1250?), Jordanus Nemorarius (died in 1236), and their...
