Sinopsis

Excerpt from First Lessons in Algebra: In Which the Elements of the Science Are Familiarly Explained

IN the following elementary treatise on Algebra, the author has endeavored to present the subject in a manner so simple that a child of ordinary intellectual power, who has acquired a knowledge of Arithmetic, can fully comprehend it. He has sought to explain, concise] but clearly, every principle presented, so as to enab e such a pupil to surmount every difficulty as it occurs; but his aim has not been to make a treatise on Arithmetic, in disguise, nor to remove every difliculty from the path of the student, leaving nothing to exercise and strengthen his mental powers. By thus confining him self within the real bounds of the science, and avoiding long dissertations on unimportant subjects, and tedious explanations which a teacher could give much better orally, in a few words, to the very small number of pupils for whom they may be thought acces sary, the author has been enabled to comprise within a small compass a larger amount of real algebraic matter than will be found in many treatises of much larger dimensions.
