Mathematical Papers Of The Late George Green (1871)

Mathematical Papers of the Late George Green (1871) is a collection of papers written by George Green, a British mathematician who made significant contributions to the fields of mathematical physics and potential theory in the 19th century. The book was compiled and edited by N.M. Ferrers, a fellow mathematician and friend of Green. The papers included in the book cover a range of topics, including the diffusion of heat, the motion of fluids, and the theory of elasticity. Green's work is known for its originality and clarity, and his contributions to the development of mathematical physics were highly influential in his time and continue to be studied today. This book provides a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in the history of mathematics and the development of mathematical physics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

The mathematical physicist George Green (1793-1841) is best remembered for his Essay on the Application of Mathematical Analysis to the Theories of Electricity and Magnetism (1828). Edited by Norman Macleod Ferrers (1829-1903) and published in 1871, this collection comprises Green's influential essay and nine further papers.
