Excerpt from A Treatise on Some New Geometrical Methods, Vol. 2 of 2
I have not been led away by mathematical pedantry to attempt to render this essay purely algebraical, by rejecting geometrical conceptions and the aids thence derived to simplicity and clearness, knowing that, very Often, the elegance Of the analysis is owing to the distinctness of the graphical conception, and that, though the forms of the reasoning may be different, the subject is identically the same.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. An intriguing look at the geometrical properties of elliptical integrals, this book provides insights into their presence throughout mathematics and physics. The author makes the point that these integrals are not abstract concepts confined to theory, but play a dynamic role in the motion of objects. The elliptical integrals covered in this book are the basis for understanding the path of an object in space â" a crucial concept in orbital mechanics and astrophysics. The insights in this book were arrived at across a lifetime of research, and serve to underscore the profound interplay between mathematics and the hard sciences.
