Originally published in 1820, this is an early work by the renowned mathematician and inventor Charles Babbage (1791 1871). The text was written to provide mathematical students with an accessible introduction to functional equations, an area that had been previously absent from elementary mathematical literature. A short bibliography is also contained. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Babbage and the history of mathematics."
