Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Ray's New Higher Algebra: Elements of Algebra for Colleges, Schools, and Private Students
Algebra is justly regarded one of the most interesting and useful branches of education, and an acquaintance with it is now sought by all who progress beyond the more common elements. To those who would know Mathematics, a knowledge not merely of its elementary principles, but also of its higher parts, is essen tial while no one can lay claim to that discipline of mind which education confers, who is not familiar with the logic of Algebra.
It is both a demonstrative and a practical science a system of truths and reasoning, from which is derived a collection of Rules that may be used in the solution of an endless variety of problems, not only interesting to the student, but many of which are of the highest possible utility in the arts of life.
