""Higher Mathematics: A Textbook For Classical And Engineering Colleges"" is a comprehensive guide to advanced mathematical concepts, written by authors Merriman and Mansfield in 1896. This textbook covers a wide range of topics, including calculus, differential equations, and linear algebra, with a focus on their applications in the fields of classical and engineering colleges. The book is structured to provide a clear and concise explanation of each topic, with numerous examples and exercises to help students understand and practice the concepts. The authors also include historical context and biographical information on prominent mathematicians throughout the text. This book is a valuable resource for students and educators seeking a thorough understanding of higher mathematics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

In the early part of this century it was possible for an industrious student to acquire a comprehensive if not minute knowledge of the entire realm of mathematical science. The more eminent minds of that time, Hke Lagrange, Laplace, and Gauss, were about equally familiar with all branches of pure and applied mathematics. Since that epoch the tendency has been constantly towards specialization; and additions to pure theory along with extensions of apphcations have been made with increasing rapidity, until now the mere quantity of information available presents a formidable obstacle to the simultaneous attainment of the breadth and depth of knowledge which characterized the mathematician of a generation ago. It would appear, however, that. this obstacle is due to the bewildering mass of details rather than to any considerable increase in the number of fundamental principles. Hence the student who seeks to gain a comprehensive view of the mathematics of the present day needs most of all that sort of guidance which fixes his attention on essentials and prevents him from wasting valuable time and energy in the pursuit of nonessentials. During the past twenty years a marked change of opinion has occurred as to the aims and methods of mathematical instruction. The old ideas that mathematical studies should be pursued to discipH ne the mind, and that such studies were ended when an elementary course in the calculus had been covered, have for the most part disappeared.
