Book Synopsis

The slide rule is a device for easily and quickly multiplying, dividing and extracting square root and cube root. It will also perform any combination of these processes. On this account, it is found extremely useful by students and teachers in schools and colleges, by engineers, architects, draftsmen, surveyors, chemists, and many others. Accountants and clerks find it very helpful when approximate calculations must be made rapidly. The operation of a slide rule is extremely easy, and it is well worth while for anyone who is called upon to do much numerical calculation to learn to use one. It is the purpose of this manual to explain the operation in such a way that a person who has never before used a slide rule may teach himself to do so.
