Book Description
Excerpt from The Quadrature of the Circle: Correspondence Between an Eminent Mathematician and James Smith, Esq. Previously to the twenty-ninth meeting of the British Association, at Aberdeen, in 18 59, my enquiries had been confined to an examination of the relations existing between circles and squares, but even this limited condi tion of the enquiry had thoroughly satisfied me, as to the true relation between the diameter and circum ference of a circle; and I resolved to bring the subject under the notice of the Association, of which I have been a member almost from the earliest period of its existence. A short time before the meeting of the Association, I addressed a letter to the Honorary Secretary, informing him that it was my intention to attend the meeting, and that I purposed reading a Paper On tbc true Circum ference and A rea of a Circle. I received a reply from him, to say my Paper was placed on the books, and re questing me to inform him, on what day I should be prepared to read it. To this I replied, that I should be prepared to read it on the first day of the meeting of the Sections, if necessary, or on any subsequent day if more convenient to the Association.
