Overview

Excerpt from Elliptic Integrals The underlying theory, the philosophy of the subject, I have attempted to give in my larger work on elliptic functions, Vol. I. In the preparation of the present monograph much use has been made of Greenhill's Application of Elliptic Func tions, a work which cannot be commended too highly; one may also read with great advantage Cayley's Elliptic Functions. The standard works of Legendre, Abel and Jacobi are briefly considered in the text. It may also be of interest to note briefly the earlier mathematicians who made possible the writings just mentioned.
