О книге

Excerpt from First Year Mathematics

This book is the result of twenty years of patient experiment in actual teaching. It is intended to be completed in the first year of the high school. It presents algebraic equations primarily as a device for the solution of problems stated in words, and gives a complete treatment of numerical equations such as are usually included in high-school algebra - one-letter and two-letter equations, integral and fractional, including one-letter quadratics and the linear-quadratic pair. So much of algebraic manipulation is included as is necessary for the treatment of these equations.

The arithmetic in the book is presented from a new point of view - that of approximate computation - and is utilized in the evaluation of formulas and in the solution of equations throughout the succeeding pages.

Geometrical facts are introduced as the basis of many algebraic and arithmetic problems, and wherever they are not intuitively accepted by the pupils they are accompanied by adequate logical demonstration. Proofs, and parts of proofs, are avoided when they seem to the pupils of an unnecessary and hair-splitting kind.

All problems are carefully graded, for it is by means of problems that each successive algebraic difficulty is introduced.

A great deal of pains has been taken to present new topics clearly and concretely, often dividing them into sub-topics each of which is separately illustrated and applied to practice. Definitions are generally prepared for by such advance work as will cause the student to feel the need of them; and where no need exists, they are omitted.
