Excerpt from Junior High School Mathematics: Book III: General Mathematics for the Ninth YearThis series of mathematical textbooks marks a new type of mathematics as to aims, purposes, and material. Unbiased by tradition, the author seeks to give the mathematics necessary in order to interpret the quantitative phases of modern life, met by the average intelligent person outside of his specialized vocation. That is, all topics and processes have been selected for the primary purpose of developing the power to see and the habit of seeing those quantitative relationships and spatial magnitudes necessary to a better understanding and appreciation of present-day life.To do this, the series makes use of concepts and processes usually classed as arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry, but it uses only such a part of these subjects as is needed to interpret and appreciate the references to them found in general reading or met in present-day social activities. It is the modern needs of the student, then, that are kept constantly in mind in the selection of topics, and not the development of the subject along traditional lines.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
