Synopsis

Master the art of solving complex equations with practical insight.

This edition presents Meyer Hirsch’s methodical approach to the literal calculus and algebra, translated for today’s readers. It surveys symmetric and non-symmetric functions, elimination techniques, and the general solution of polynomial equations, with a focus on clear, transferable strategies.

In clear, accessible chapters, you’ll follow the development from foundational concepts to a broad framework for tackling high‑degree problems. The text emphasizes uniform methods, combinatorial reasoning, and the role of transformed equations, offering a window into the historical challenges and breakthroughs in algebra.
  • Foundations of symmetrical and transformed functions essential to solving equations
  • Step‑by‑step elimination techniques and how they connect to reduced forms
  • Strategies for the general solution of higher‑degree polynomials
  • Historical context and the evolution of algebraic methods from classic researchers
Ideal for readers of mathematical history, advanced algebra, or anyone curious about the roots of equation solving.
