Excerpt from School Algebra, Vol. 2 The applied problems include as many as possible of the kind met in real life, these necessarily being supplemented by others that have their chief value in the interest they arouse and the drill they give. The topics are those that are found in all stand ard courses of study extending through the Binomial Theorem. Logarithms and the graphic representation of the Complex Number are also included, to be taken or not, as circumstances permit.

Excerpt from Durell's School Algebra, Vol. 2 The main Object in writing this school algebra has been to simplify principles and give them interest, by Showing more plainly, if possible, than has been done heretofore, the practical or common-sense reason for each step or process. For instance, at the outset it is Shown that new symbols are introduced into algebra not arbitrarily, but because of definite advantages in representing numbers. Each successive process is taken up for the sake of the economy or new power which it gives as compared with previous processes.

Excerpt from Algebra, Vol. 2: An Elementary Text-Book for the Higher Classes of Secondary Schools and for Colleges The delay in the appearance of this volume finds an apology partly in circumstances of a private character, partly in public engagements that could not he declined, but most of all in the growth of the work itself as it progressed in my hands. I have not, as some one prophesied, reached ten volumes; but the present concluding volume is somewhat larger and has cost me infinitely more trouble than I expected.

Excerpt from High School Algebra The fundamental principles are stated and proved after the manner of theorems in geometry. Pupils are expected to memorize the statements of the propositions and to demonstrate them in a formal manner at the blackboard. The emphasis is placed upon principles rather than upon examples, under the conviction that if we take care of the principles the examples will take care of themselves. The mere reading, without memorizing, of statements, or the mere discussion, without reproduction, of demonstrations never makes a definite or a lasting impression. The pupil who solves examples merely by models becomes an imitator instead of a thinker. When tested by the college examiner, he is found to possess many fragmentary and crude ideas.

Excerpt from High School Algebra Complete The Second Course in Algebra, beginning page 241, is designed for use in the second or third year of the high school course. In common practice the mathematics courses in high schools require a year of geometry following the first year algebra, but this course does not assume a knowledge of geometry; it may follow in a continuous study of the sub jcet through a year and a half or two years, as required in some schools.
