Principes et Développements de Géométrie Cinématique, Ouvrage Contenant de Nombreuses Applications à la Théorie des Surfaces. (French)

Author: Mannheim, A   

Publisher: Paris: Gauthier-Villars 1894.

Description: 589p brown library cloth, gilt title to spine, usual ex library markings, pages remarkably clean and fresh, a stunning copy internally if rather dull from the outside, "[Colonel Mannheim's] primary interest was influenced by Chasles"s work on the polar reciprocal transformation, which he further investigated with respect to metric properties. He applied these studies in his work to kinematic geometry, which he defined as the study of motion, independent of force, time, and any elements outside the moving figure." (DSB)
