The following computer-generated description may contain errors and does not represent the quality of the book:
Although Algebra naturally follows Arithmetic ba course of scientific studies, yet the change from the methods of reasoning on numbers to a system of reasoning entirely conducted by letters and signs, is rather abrupt and not unfrequently discourages the pupil. In this work, it has been the intention, to form a connecting link between Arithmetic and Algebra, to unite and blend, as fur as possible, the reasoning on numbers with the more abstruse methods of analysis. The Algebra of M.Bourdon has been closely followed. Indeed, it has been a part of the plan, to furnish an mxroduction to that admirable treatise, which is justly considered, both in Europe and this cou try, as the best work on the subject of which it treats, that has yet appeared. The work of Bourdon, however, even in its abridged form, is too voluminous for schools, and the reasoning is too elaborate and metaphysical for beginners. It has been thought that a work which should so far modify the system of M.Bourdon as to bring it within the scope of our common schools, by giving to it a more practical and tangible form, could not fail to be useful. Such is the object of the Elehentahy Algebra.
