Description
From Science, Vol. 16:
THOSE who want to take up this somewhat complicated subject, and who have been repelled by the larger works of foreign writers, will be glad to get hold of Professor Baker's work, who is, By the way, the professor of mathematics in the Stevens School of the Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, N.J., and who was formerly connected with the scientific department of Lafayette College, Easton. Penn.
Professor Baker does not pretend to have contributed anything to the methods of treatment, but he has aimed at smoothing the road to this increasingly important branch of mathematics, and of putting within reach of the English student a tolerably complete outline of the subject, clothed in simple mathematical language and methods.
