This comprehensive two-volume work, "Graphical and Mechanical Computation," by Joseph Lipka, explores the principles and applications of graphical and mechanical methods in mathematical computation. Originally published in the early 20th century, it remains a valuable resource for understanding the historical development of computational techniques. Volume 1 focuses on graphical methods, including the construction and use of nomograms for solving equations and performing calculations. Volume 2 delves into mechanical computation, covering slide rules, planimeters, and other mechanical devices u...
This comprehensive two-volume work, "Graphical and Mechanical Computation," by Joseph Lipka, explores the principles and applications of graphical and mechanical methods in mathematical computation. Originally published in the early 20th century, it remains a valuable resource for understanding the historical development of computational techniques. Volume 1 focuses on graphical methods, including the construction and use of nomograms for solving equations and performing calculations. Volume 2 delves into mechanical computation, covering slide rules, planimeters, and other mechanical devices used in engineering and scientific calculations. Together, these volumes provide a detailed overview of the tools and techniques that were essential for engineers, scientists, and mathematicians before the advent of digital computers. This republication makes Lipka's classic work accessible to a new generation of readers interested in the history of computation and the ingenuity of pre-digital calculating devices. "Graphical and Mechanical Computation" is an important addition to any collection on mathematical history and practical engineering.
