From the Library's catalogue:
Robert Woodhouse was the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics in Cambridge—a post once held by Newton and to be held by Nicholas Saunderson, Charles Babbage and many other distinguished individuals. Woodhouse was one of the first in Britain to embrace the newer influences in the teaching of mathematics developed on the continent. He strongly encouraged the study of mathematical analysis in contrast with the, by that time out of date, work of Newton. In this he was aided by his disciples George Peacock, John Herschel and Charles Babbage when they became students at Cambridge. It is entirely possible that they adopted the name for their Analytical Society from their association with Woodhouse (see entry for Babbage, Charles; Memoirs of the Analytical Society, 1813). In this work Woodhouse reviewed the various methods that had been used to deal with changing quantities (infinitesimals, limits, etc). While he criticized some of the concepts being put forward by Lagrange and others as being insufficient, he did, despite these criticisms, throw his influence behind the continental methods. This work is highly technical, and one must be familiar with mathematics to see some of the more subtle points.

A rare, 17th century Japanese woodblock print of "Sanpouketsugishou" written by Isomura Yoshinori, a mathematician. Isomura was called 'the master of the abacus' because he solved problems that would otherwise not be possible without using algebra, and the abacus features in many illustrations as does his interest in 'magic squares, magic circles and magic wheels.' This book contains solutions to 12 problems published in an earlier work and provides 150 more.
This rare edition is written in the typical handwritten column format bound in the "fukurotoji" style (Keio) complete with illustrations of mathematic problems, shapes, diagrams, and people and animals using an abacus throughout!
