Excerpt from Euclid's Elements of Geometry, the First Six Books: To Which Are Added, Elements of Plain and Spherical Trigonometry, a System of Conick Sections, Elements of Natural Philosophy, as Far as It Relates to Astronomy, According To9 the Newtonlan System, and Elements of Astronomy: With Notes
Reverend Sir. - It seems matter of considerable regret, that, notwithstanding the great Newton, more than a century since, has, in his mathematical principles of Natural Philosophy, developed those discoveries, which have met with such universal admiration, and concurrence of judgment among the learned, yet this invaluable work remains, at this day, almost a locked treasure among us. This perhaps may, in a great measure, be imputed to the scarcity of tracts, giving the necessary preparatory knowledge. Your plan of annexing to the most useful, important, and generally read parts of Euclid's Elements, a well compressed system of Conick Sections, seems well calculated to diffuse that preparatory knowledge, and to connect the Euclidean with the higher geometry. - From the prospectus, and specimens of your work I have seen, and from my confidence in your acknowledged mathematical information and talents, I have no doubt but your publication will answer this valuable purpose, be a useful acquisition both to preceptors and students in mathematicks, and receive from the publick a liberal patronage.
Dear Sir. - I have frequently regretted, that, of the many works on the Conick Sections, we have not any, which I deem sufficiently simple and concise for the present state of education in our American corteges. Most of the modern writers on this subject, instead of treating of the three different kinds of curves jointly, have done it separately, thereby rendering their works exceedingly prolix and tedious I highly approve of your system, because it presents, concisely, and at one view, the corresponding properties of the different sections, and possesses all the purity of the synthetick method of the ancients. Your combining with them, elements of Plain and Spherical Trigonometry, with the mathematical principles of Astronomy, will, I have no doubt, tend very much to diffuse mathematical science.
I purpose to make use of your work, as a text book, in teaching the Mathematicks, and to recommend it to my friends and former pupils, who arc professors and principals of literary institutions in the southern states.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive exploration of geometry, delving into the foundational principles established by the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid. It is a fascinating journey through the world of lines, angles, and figures, laying the groundwork for understanding the complexities of higher mathematics. The author, clearly a dedicated scholar, bridges the gap between Euclid's timeless work and its relevance to his own time. He grapples with the challenges of making these principles accessible to a wider audience, highlighting the ongoing importance of geometry in a world where its application extends beyond theoretical studies. Through detailed explanations and elegant demonstrations, the author not only illuminates Euclid's work but also reveals the profound connections between geometry and the natural world, offering insights into the orderly structure of the universe. The bookââ â¢s insightful approach to the principles of geometry, coupled with the author's own reflections on their significance, makes it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to grasp the enduring power of Euclid's mathematical legacy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
