Page iii - The chief aim has been to meet the wants of beginners in the class-room. The Elements and Lectures of Sir WR Hamilton are mines of wealth, and may be said to contain the suggestion of all that will be done in the way of Quaternion research and application : for this reason, as also on account of their diffuseness of style, they are not suitable for the purposes of elementary instruction. The same may be...
