Lectures on Elementary Mathematics

by Thomas J. McCormack Joseph Louis Legrange

One of the 18th century's greatest mathematicians, Lagrange made significant contributions to analysis and number theory. He delivered these lectures on arithmetic, algebra, and geometry at the École Normale, a training school for teachers. An exemplar among elementary expositions, they feature both originality of thought and elegance of expression.

I found that he explained mathematical series the best, and I liked his sense of ethics.
