Excerpt from Introductory Course Differential Equations: For Students in Classical and Engineering Colleges The aim of this work is to give a brief exposition of some of the devices employed in solving differential equations. The book presupposes only a knowledge of the fundamental formulæ of integration, and may be described as a chapter supplementary to the elementary works on the integral calculus. The needs of two classes of students, with whom the author has been brought into contact in the course of his experience as a teacher, have determined the character of the work. For the sake of students of physics and engineering who wish to use the subject as a tool, and have little time to devote to general theory, the theoretical explanations have been made as brief as is consistent with clearness and sound reasoning, and examples have been worked in full detail in almost every case. Practical applications have also been constantly kept in mind, and two special chapters dealing with geometrical and physical problems have been introduced. The other class for which the book is intended is that of students in the general courses in Arts and Science, who have more time to gratify any interest they may feel in this subject, and some of whom may be intending to proceed to the study of the higher mathematics.
