Riassunto

""Project Of A New System Of Arithmetic, Weight, Measure, And Coins: Proposed To Be Called The Tonal System, With Sixteen To The Base"" is a book written by John William Nystrom and published in 1862. The book presents a proposal for a new system of measurement, based on the number 16 rather than the traditional base 10. Nystrom argues that this new system, which he calls the Tonal System, would be more efficient and practical than the current system of measurement. The book includes detailed explanations and examples of how the new system would work, as well as comparisons with the current system. Nystrom also proposes new units of measurement for length, weight, and volume, as well as a new system of coinage. The book is considered a significant contribution to the field of mathematics and has been influential in the development of alternative systems of measurement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
