Abstract

(1) FOR the analyst whose work embraces a wide range of problems it is comforting to have at hand a book which can be trusted to Indicate forthwith the best, or at least the usual, methods of solving such problems. It obviates an undue expenditure of time on the searching of files and indexes, and facilitates the comparing of one process with another, which is usually a necessary preliminary to attacking the task in hand, if that task is a new one.
