On The Rectification And Quadrature Of The Spherical Ellipse (1844)

""On The Rectification And Quadrature Of The Spherical Ellipse"" is a mathematical treatise written by James Booth and published in 1844. The book is a detailed exploration of the properties of the spherical ellipse, a geometric shape that is formed by intersecting a sphere with a plane. Booth discusses the methods for finding the perimeter and area of a spherical ellipse, known as rectification and quadrature, respectively. He also provides a thorough analysis of the properties of the shape, including its curvature, focal points, and the relationship between the major and minor axes. The book is written for a mathematically advanced audience and includes numerous equations and diagrams to aid in the understanding of the material. Overall, ""On The Rectification And Quadrature Of The Spherical Ellipse"" is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of a complex geometric shape.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
