The Method Of Increments

""The Method of Increments"" is a book written by William Emerson and originally published in 1763. The book is a guide to the mathematical method of increments, which is a technique used to solve complex mathematical problems by breaking them down into smaller, more manageable parts. In the book, Emerson explains the principles behind the method and provides numerous examples of how it can be applied to solve a variety of problems. He also includes detailed explanations of the mathematical concepts and formulas needed to use the method effectively.The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the method of increments. The first section provides an overview of the method and its history, while subsequent sections delve into more advanced topics such as the calculus of finite differences and the method of fluxions.Throughout the book, Emerson emphasizes the importance of practice and provides numerous exercises and problems for readers to work through. He also includes detailed solutions to many of the problems, making the book a valuable resource for students and mathematicians alike.Overall, ""The Method of Increments"" is a comprehensive guide to a powerful mathematical technique that has been used for centuries to solve complex problems. It is a must-read for anyone interested in mathematics or looking to improve their problem-solving skills.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
