Excerpt from Algebra for Beginners

The present work has been undertaken at the request of many teachers, in order to be placed in the hands of beginners, and to serve as an introduction to the larger treatise published by the author; it is accordingly based on the earlier chapters of that treatise, but is of a more elementary character. Great pains have been taken to render the work intelligible to young students, by the use of simple language and by copious explanations. In determining the subjects to be included and the space to be assigned to each, the author has been guided by the papers given at the various examinations in ele mentary Algebra which are now carried on in this country. The book may be said to consist of three parts. The first part contains the elementary operations in integral and fractional expressions; it occupies eighteen chapters. The second part contains the solution of equations and pro hlems; it occupies twelve chapters. The subjects contained in these two parts constitute nearly the whole of every ex amination paper which was consulted, and accordingly they are treated with ample detail of illustration and exercise. The third part forms the remainder of the book; it con sists of various subjects which are introduced but rarely into the examination papers, and which are therefore more brie?y discussed.
