Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book provides a complete and detailed treatise on the applications of the sliding rule in mathematics, surveying, gauging, carpentry, and other related disciplines. Originally devised in the 17th century, the sliding rule was the first mechanical calculator. It enabled immensely faster calculations than its predecessors, including the abacus, Napier's bones, and logarithms. Engineers, scientists, navigators, and surveyors all relied on the sliding rule for calculations. This book not only provides instruction on the full range of the sliding rule's functions but also explores its historical, social, and mathematical context. The author demonstrates the wide range of calculations possible with the sliding rule and provides ample examples to illustrate the use of this essential tool. By the end of this book, readers will have a deep understanding of the principles of the sliding rule and mastery of its applications, enabling them to confidently use this tool for the wide array of tasks for which it was designed. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
