Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

The Theory of the Top was originally presented by Felix Klein as an 1895 lecture at Goettingen University that was broadened in scope and clarified as a result of collaboration with Arnold Sommerfeld. The Theory of the Top: Volume IV. Technical Applications of the Theory of the Top is the fourth and final installment in a series of self-contained English translations that provide insights into kinetic theory and kinematics.

The lecture series on the Theory of the Top was originally given as a dedication to Goettingen University by Felix Klein in 1895, but has since found broader appeal. The Theory of the Top: Volume I. Introduction to the Kinematics and Kinetics of the Top is the first of a series of four self-contained English translations that provide insights into kinetic theory and kinematics.
Bei der Herausgabe der KLEINschen Vorlesung uber die hyper- geometrische Funktion erschienen nur zwei Wege gangbar: Entweder eine durchgreifende Umarbeitung, auch im grossen, oder eine moglichst weitgehende Erhaltung der ursprunglichen Form. Vor allem auch aus historischen Grunden wurde der letztere Weg beschritten. Daher ist die Anordnung des Stoffes erhalten geblieben; e,s ist nur, von kleinen Anderungen abgesehen, ein Exkurs uber homogene Schreibweise aus der KLEINschen Vorlesung uber lineare Differentialgleichungen ein- gefugt, ferner sind die Schlussbemerkungen zur geometrischen Theorie im Falle komplexer Exponenten als durch die Arbeiten von F. SCHILLING uberholt, weggelassen. Aus dem obengenannten Grunde sind beispiels- weise auch Entwicklungen beibehalten worden, die heute schon dem Anfanger gelaufig sind (etwa die Ausfuhrungen uber stereographische Projektion). In Rucksicht auf moglichste Erhaltung der KLEINschen Darstellung sind ferner Hinweise des Herausgebers auf inzwischen ge- machte Fortschritte der Wissenschaft vom Texte getrennt als Anmerkun- gen am Schluss zusammengestellt. Diese Hinweise erheben aber in keiner Weise den Anspruch auf Vollstandigkeit. Bei der nicht zu um- gehenden Revision des Textes im einzelnen ist, dem oben angegebenen Gesichtspunkt entsprechend, moglichste Wahrung des personlichen KLEINschen Stils angestrebt. ubrigens habe ich darauf Bedacht genommen, auch dem A nlanger die Lekture durch Anmerkungen und durch Nachweise der KLEINschen Zitate zu erleichtern. Denn zweifellos bieten gerade diese Vorlesungen eine treffliche Erganzung und Weiterfuhrung dessen, was der Studierende mittleren Semesters an Geometrie und Funktionentheorie kennen- gelernt hat.
These three volumes constitute the first complete English translation of Felix Klein's seminal series "Elementarmathematik vom hoheren Standpunkte aus". "Complete" has a twofold meaning here: First, there now exists a translation of volume III into English, while until today the only translation had been into Chinese. Second, the English versions of volume I and II had omitted several, even extended parts of the original, while we now present a complete revised translation into modern English. The volumes, first published between 1902 and 1908, are lecture notes of courses that Klein offered to future mathematics teachers, realizing a new form of teacher training that remained valid and effective until today: Klein leads the students to gain a more comprehensive and methodological point of view on school mathematics. The volumes enable us to understand Klein's far-reaching conception of elementarisation, of the "elementary from a higher standpoint", in its implementation for school mathematics. This volume I is devoted to what Klein calls the three big "A's": arithmetic, algebra and analysis. They are presented and discussed always together with a dimension of geometric interpretation and visualisation - given his epistemological viewpoint of mathematics being based in space intuition. A particularly revealing example for elementarisation is his chapter on the transcendence of e and p, where he succeeds in giving concise yet well accessible proofs for the transcendence of these two numbers. It is in this volume that Klein makes his famous statement about the double discontinuity between mathematics teaching at schools and at universities - it was his major aim to overcome this discontinuity.

The volumes enable us to understand Klein's far-reaching conception of elementarisation, of the "elementary from a higher standpoint", in its implementation for school mathematics. In Volume III, Klein explores the relationship between precision and approximation mathematics. He crosses the various fields of mathematics - from functions in one and two variables to practical geometry to space curves and surfaces - underlining the relation between the exactness of the idealised concepts and the approximations to be considered in applications. Logical procedures are confronted with the way in which concepts arise starting from observations. It is a comparison between properties pertaining only to the theoretical field of abstract mathematics and properties that can be grasped by intuition. The final part, which concerns gestalt relations of curves and surfaces, shows Klein to be the master of the art of description of geometric forms.

The volumes enable us to understand Klein's far-reaching conception of elementarisation, of the "elementary from a higher standpoint", in its implementation for school mathematics. This volume II presents a paradigmatic realisation of Klein's approach of elementarisation for teacher education. It is shown how the various geometries, elaborated particularly since the beginning of the 19th century, are revealed as becoming unified in a new restructured geometry. As Klein liked to stress: "Projective geometry is all geometry". Non-Euclidean geometry proves to constitute a part of this unifying process. The teaching of geometry is discussed in a separate chapter, which provides moreover important information on the history of geometry teaching and an international comparison.
The Theory of the Top. Volume II. Development of the Theory in the Case of the Heavy Symmetric Top is the second in a series of four self-contained English translations of the classic and definitive treatment of rigid body motion. Graduate students and researchers interested in theoretical and applied mechanics will find this a thorough and insightful account. Other works in this series include Volume I. Introduction to the Kinematics and Kinetics of the Top, Volume III. Perturbations. Astronomical and Geophysical Applications, and Volume IV. Technical Applications of the Theory of the Top.
Founder of the National Society for Graphology, Felix Klein began his study of graphology in his birthplace, Vienna, Austria, at the age of thirteen. He was a practicing graphologist all of his life and lectured and gave seminars throughout the United States and in Canada, England, Germany, Israel and Mexico. Mr. Klein came to the United States in 1940 after spending six months each in the concentration camps at Dachau and Buchenwald. While in those camps he formulated his theory of directional pressure as a result of studying changes in the handwriting of his fellow inmates. Mr. Klein did extensive work in personnel selection for major companies and banks, vocational guidance, and individual analyses, as well as forensic document examination for such entities as the U.N., AT&T, and a major political figure in Ghana, Africa. It was probably as a teacher that Felix was most known and loved. He held classes and offered correspondence courses in all levels of graphology: elementary, intermediate, advanced, Master Research, and Psychology for Graphologists. Wherever Felix spoke, his warm, caring personality and his naturalness and keen sense of humor generated enthusiastic responses from young and old alike.
Discusses calculating with natural numbers, the first extension of
the notion of number, special properties of integers, and complex
numbers; algebra-related subjects such as real equations with real
unknowns and equations in the field of complex quantities. Also
explores elements of analysis, with discussions of logarithmic and
exponential functions, the goniometric functions, and infinitesimal
calculus. 1932 edition. 125 figures.
