Riassunto

Excerpt from First Lessons in Geometry: Upon the Model of Colburn's First Lessons in Arithmetic

I. It aims to give a simpler and plainer form to the ele ments of Geometry, and thus to bring the science, without sacrificing any of that strictness of demonstration which is its peculiar glory, within the province of the common school, and the reach even of the quite young. The relations of place, and form, and magnitude are those of which the youthful, not to say the mature, mind conceives most easily and most distinctly; and it has long seemed to me a subject for regret, that we have had no work in our list of common school books (however excellent treatises may have been pre pared for higher institutions, or for special purposes) to take advantage of these juvenile conceptions, to give to them a scientific form, and to make them the foundation of elevated and accurate attainment.
