This book takes readers on a chronological journey from Euclid's time through algebra's modern applications, marking a key text in the mathematical education of Cambridge undergraduates for over a century. A vast compendium of problems, this volume has been instrumental in inspiring mathematical excellence across generations. Its pages contain problems in geometry, algebra, trigonometry, conic sections, differential and integral calculus, and more, each meticulously crafted to illuminate that subject's intricacies. The solutions themselves are a masterclass in mathematical thinking, revealing the author's profound understanding of the field and offering valuable insights to problem-solvers of all levels. More than a problem book, however, this collection provides a fascinating glimpse into the intellectual landscape of 19th-century mathematics at Cambridge and offers a timeless resource for any serious student of the subject. Its enduring relevance lies in the depth of the problems it offers and the elegance with which they lead to the heart of mathematical inquiry.
