Synopsis

This book addresses the theory of inequalities, maxima, and minima and forms an indispensable foundation for the study of limits and infinite series. The author extends the fundamental operations of arithmetic to limiting values, introducing a series of elementary indeterminate forms as he progresses. The work also includes numerous theorems, such as the Mean-Theorem for fractions, the investigations of inequalities of arithmetic and geometric means, and the exploration of the concept of limits as applied to indeterminate forms. The author's thoughtful examination of the properties of the circular functions and the logical exposition of the theory of expansions in infinite series makes this book an essential read for any student of algebra.
