First edition, first issue with the errata at the verso of page vii.
"Monge is regarded as the creator of descriptive geometry, for 'it ws he who elegantly and methodically converted the group of graphical procedures used by practionners into a general uniform technique based on simple an rigorous reasoning and methods ...Monge's systematic use of cylindrical projection and, more discreetly, that of central projection, opened the way to the parallel creation of projective and modern geometry' (DSB). It was primarily through Monge's teachings, both at the ephemeral École de l'an III and the École Polytechnique, that descriptive geometry, analytical geometry and differential geometry were established as special fields".(Norman).

Manuscript of the late eighteenth,early nineteenth century of elementary mathematics.
Well written, it deals with arithmetic (operations on numbers and fractions), divisibility, greatest common divisor, proportion, complex numbers (operations on weight).
We also found it a very interesting chapter on the new measures, conversions francs / pounds and the introduction of the metric system. The definition of the franc corresponds to that of 15 August 1795.

First edition of the two books of the mathematical works of Dupin.
Dupin is known for it's theorem and for the cyclides of Dupin.
Today, Dupin cylides are used in computer-aided design (CAD), because cyclide patches have rational representations and are suitable for blending canal surfaces (cylinder, cones, tori, and others).

Dupin is known for it's theorem and for the cyclides of Dupin.
Today, Dupin cylides are used in computer-aided design (CAD), because cyclide patches have rational representations and are suitable for blending canal surfaces (cylinder, cones, tori, and others).
