A treatment by Craig(e) of transmutation of a particular curve into another. Secondarily, there is a tabulation of the Measures of the Blood Vessells in Dogs by James Kyll MD at Oxford in 1699, and a Dr Robert Areskine's Measures of the Arterys (human? canine?). There is also a 1707 note about how the French form the chamber of their mortars, and a passing mention of a new proposal on quadrature just brought before the Royal Society. |
