This book is a comprehensive guide to spherical trigonometry, a branch of mathematics focusing on triangles drawn on the surface of a sphere. It begins by introducing the fundamental concepts, such as the measurement of angles and sides of spherical triangles. Subsequent chapters provide detailed explorations of various theorems, the sine and cosine rules, and more advanced topics, including the solution of spherical triangles by means of Napier's rules of circular parts and logarithmic computation. The author's clear and systematic approach, coupled with a wealth of solved examples and exercises, makes this book an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and professionals alike. Its insights into spherical trigonometry are both profound and practical, offering a deeper understanding of the subject's significance in fields ranging from astronomy to geodesy.
