Publisher's Synopsis
Symbolical Methods of Study is a book written by Mary Everest Boole, an English mathematician and educator. The book explores the use of symbolic logic as a tool for understanding complex concepts and ideas. Boole argues that by using symbols to represent abstract concepts, we can more easily manipulate and analyze them, leading to deeper insights and a more thorough understanding of the subject matter. The book is divided into three parts. The first part introduces the concept of symbolic logic and its applications in various fields such as mathematics, philosophy, and science. The second part focuses on the use of symbolic methods in the study of language and literature. Boole shows how the use of symbols can reveal hidden patterns and structures in language, leading to a deeper appreciation of literature and poetry. The third part of the book discusses the use of symbolic methods in the study of music and art. Boole argues that the use of symbols can help us analyze and understand the structure and meaning of music and art, leading to a more profound appreciation of these art forms. Overall, Symbolical Methods of Study is a thought-provoking book that explores the power of symbolic logic as a tool for understanding complex concepts and ideas. Boole's insights and ideas continue to be relevant and influential in fields such as mathematics, philosophy, and education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
