Abstract
THERE is little calling for special notice in Mr. Vyvyan's work. The fact of its having reached a third edition is a clear indication that it has met with acceptance. New chapters have been added on focal properties of conies and on abridged notation and trilinear co-ordinates; the central conies are discussed together; and the chapter on the general equation has been enlarged. There is a good selection of exercises. The work is reduced in price, and now forms one of the publishers' series of Cambridge School and College Text Books.
