Excerpt from Introduction to Quaternions
In preparing the third edition of Kelland and Tait's Introduction to Quaternions I have been guided mainly by two considerations. In the first place, the average mathematical student of to day attains either at school or in his early college courses a much higher standard than was possible in 1873 when Kelland wrote, or even in 1881, the date of the second edition. It seemed, therefore, desirable to delete many of the very simple geometrical illustrations which formed a large part of the text, indicating their nature by a word, or transferring them as exercises to the end of the appropriate chapter. In this way valuable space has been gained for the discussion of problems more fitted to bring out the power and beauty of the quaternion calculus.
It is right to mention, however, that Chapter I. has been left exactly as Kelland wrote it; and the greater part of Chapter II. is simply reproduced.
The second consideration was the necessity for presenting the main features of Hamilton's great calculus in a brief but yet logically complete form. This has led to the recasting of Chapters III. and IX. In the new Chapters III. and IV.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces readers to the study of quaternions, a powerful mathematical concept developed by Sir William Rowan Hamilton in the nineteenth century. Expanding on geometric algebra, this mathematical system extends the real numbers by introducing imaginary numbers of a higher degree, known as quaternions. The author presents the standard topics of quaternion analysis with an emphasis on geometric representation, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of the subject. The book begins with an introduction to vectors and explains how they can be represented using quaternions. It then explores linear vector functions, exploring the related topics of rotations, finite rotations, and infinitesimal rotations. The book concludes with a discussion of applications of quaternions to dynamics, showing their practical utility in areas such as physics and engineering. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330200711_0
