This applications-oriented text features a detailed and unified account of the use and calculation of spheroidal wave functions. Addressed to applied mathematicians, mathematical physicists, and mathe
In addition to being among the twentieth century’s major scientific figures, Sir James Jeans (1877?1946) was also one of the greatest modern science expositors. His classic introduction to mechanics e
The most important work ever produced in the field of physiological optics, this classic is a model of scientific method and logical procedure, and it remains unmatched in its thorough and accessible
One of the twentieth century's great expositors of science offers insights into some of the more neglected aspects of mathematics, particularly among arithmetical notion and its elementary rules, root
Students, teachers, and researchers in physical optics, astrophysics, optometry, film optics, and related fields will welcome this unabridged reprint of one of the finest fundamental texts in physical
In a series of papers originally published between 1918 and 1922, Bohr elaborates on his correspondence principle, discussing the theory's applications from a uniform point of view and considering the
Written by the nineteenth-century French philosophical founder of positivism, this comprehensive map of mathematical science assigns to each part of the complex whole its true position and value. The
How do we know that molecules really exist? An important clue came from Brownian movement, a concept developed in 1827 by botanist Robert Brown, who noticed that tiny objects like pollen grains shook
Elementary transformations and bilinear and quadratic forms; canonical reduction of equivalent matrices; subgroups of the group of equivalent transformations; and rational and classical canonical form
Two distinguished mathematicians unite many fragmentary narrations in this concise history of the origin and development of Hindu-Arabic numerals. They recount the labors of scholars who studied the s
The theory of orthogonal expansions had its origin in the debate concerning the vibrating string which animated the mathematical world two hundred years ago. It has since become an important area of m
This volume offers an account of the theorems employed in combinatory analysis, showing their connections and uniting them as parts of a general doctrine. Topics include symmetric functions, theory of
This much-cited thesis by J. D. van der Waals, the recipient of the 1910 Nobel Prize in physics, is accompanied by an introductory essay by J. S. Rowlinson and another work by van der Waals on the the
This 1546 publication remains a landmark in geology due to its unprecedented classifications by physical property and locality, its simple standardized naming system, its meticulous summaries of earli
A pioneer of many modern developments in approximation theory, Achieser begins this text with approximation problems in linear normalized spaces and the ideas of P. L. Tchebysheff. He then examines th
This two-part treatment explains basic theory and details, including oscillatory solutions, intervals of stability and instability, discriminants, and coexistence. Particular attention to stability pr
In this classic exposition, Ernst Mach presents a detailed account of the experimental and theoretical evolution of our understanding of light phenomena and apparatus. Beginning with the philosophic a
Written by the founder of symbolic logic (and Boolean algebra), this classic treatise on the calculus of finite differences offers a thorough discussion of the basic principles of the subject, coverin
This highly respected meteorological classic contains an abundance of basic information that is not only still valid but is unavailable elsewhere. Walter J. Saucier, Professor of Meteorology, North Ca
Primarily an advanced study of the modern theory of transcendental numbers, this text focuses on the theory's fundamental methods, chronicles the historical development of its methods, and explores it
Initial chapters provide summary and general methods of constructing static and dynamic equations, dealing with laws of mechanics for heated elastic solids, forms of aerodynamic operators, and structu
