On The Foundation And Technic Of Arithmetic (1912)

On The Foundation And Technic Of Arithmetic is a book written by George Bruce Halsted, first published in 1912. The book is an exploration of the fundamental principles and techniques of arithmetic, with a focus on the logical foundations of the subject. Halsted aims to provide a clear and concise explanation of the principles of arithmetic, including the concepts of numbers, operations, and equations. The book is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different topic in arithmetic. The first section provides an overview of the basic concepts of arithmetic, including the properties of numbers and the four basic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division). The second section focuses on the principles of algebra, including the use of variables and equations. The following sections of the book delve deeper into specific topics in arithmetic, such as fractions, decimals, and percentages. Halsted also explores more advanced topics, such as logarithms and the theory of numbers. Throughout the book, Halsted emphasizes the importance of understanding the underlying principles of arithmetic, rather than simply memorizing formulas and procedures. Overall, On The Foundation And Technic Of Arithmetic is a comprehensive guide to the principles and techniques of arithmetic. It is an essential resource for anyone studying mathematics, as well as for anyone who wants to deepen their understanding of this fundamental subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
