Overview

Since this Introduction to Vector Analysis and Quaternions was first publishedin 1896, the study of the subject has become much more general; and whereassome reviewers then regarded the analysis as a luxury, it is now recognized as anecessity for the exact student of physics or engineering. In America, ProfessorHathaway has published a Primer of Quaternions (New York, 1896), and Dr.Wilson has amplified and extended Professor Gibbs' lectures on vector analysisinto a text-book for the use of students of mathematics and physics (New York,1901). In Great Britain, Professor Henrici and Mr. Turner have published amanual for students entitled Vectors and Rotors (London, 1903); Dr. Knotthas prepared a new edition of Kelland and Tait's Introduction to Quaternions(London, 1904); and Professor Joly has realized Hamilton's idea of a Manual ofQuaternions (London, 1905). In Germany Dr. Bucherer has published Elementeder Vektoranalysis (Leipzig, 1903) which has now reached a second edition.
