The pathvvay to knowledge, containing the first principles of geometrie, as they may mostl aptly bee applied vnto practise, both for vse of instrumentes geometricall, and astonomicall: and also for proiection of plattes in euery kinde and therefore much necessarie for al sortes of men.
An arithmeticall militare treatise, named Stratioticos: compendiously teaching the science of nu[m]bers, as vvell in fractions as integers, and so much of the rules and
The principles of arithmetick: with helpfull observations, making the entrance easie, and the practice pleasant: teaching the five ordinary parts of arithmetick, the usuall way: the performance of multiplication and division, onely by addition and subraction: with new an notable abridgments: rules of practice, with extraordinarie helps: and therein, some excellent observations, for the easie casting up of interest. The doctrine of fractions, the foure rules of arithmetick: recreations extraordinary; or the easie performance of (seeming) impossibilities. By William Webster.
Lampas: or, Descriptions of some mechanical improvements of lamps & vvaterpoises. Together with some other physical and mechanical discoveries. Made by Robert Hooke, Fellow of the Royal Society.
Lectures de potentia restitutiva, or Of spring explaining the power of springing bodies. To which are added some collections viz. A description of Dr. Pappins wind-fountain and force-pump. Mr. Young’s observation concerning natural fountains. Some other considerations concerning that subject. Captain Sturmy’s remarks of a subterraneous cave and cistern. Mr. G.T. observations made on the Pike of Teneriff, 1674. Some reflections and conjectures occasioned thereupon. A relation of a late eruption in the Isle of Palma. By Robert Hooke. S.R.S.
The longitude found: or, A treatise shewing an easie and speedy way, as well by night as by day, to find the longitude, having but the latitude of the place, and the inclination of the magnetical inclinatorie needle. By Henry Bond Senior, teacher of navigation, and other parts of the Mathematicks, in Store-house yard in Ratcliff. Printed by the Kings Majesties special command.
Canon triangulorum, or Tables of artificiall sines and tangents, to a radius of 10000,0000 parts, and each minute of the quadrant. By Edm. Gunter Professor of Astronomie in Gresham College.
Trigonometrie. Or, The doctrine of triangles: divided into two books: the first shewing the mensuration of right lined triangles, the second of sphericall, with the grounds and demonstrations thereof. Both performed by that late and excellent invention of logarithmes, afte a more easie and compendious manner, then [sic] hath been formerly taught. Whereunto is annexed (chiefly for the use of seamen,) a treatise of the application thereof in the three principal kindes of sayling. With exact tables of the suns declination, newly calculated: and tables of the right ascension and declination of some eminent fixed stars, with the true times of their coming to the meridian, at 4, 12, and 8 of the clock: fitted for the present season, and may serve for many years without any alteration. Also other necessary tables used in navigation. By Richard Norwood, reader o the mathematicks.
The trissotetras: or, a most exquisite table for resolving all manner of triangles, whether plaine or sphericall, rectangular or obliquangular, with greater facility, then ever hitherto hath been practised: most necessary for all such as would attaine to the exact knowledge of fortification, dyaling, navigation, surveying, architecture, the art of shadowing, taking of heights, and distances, the use of both the globes, perspective, the skill of making the maps, the theory of the planets, the calculating of their motions, and of all other astronomicall computations whatsoever. Now lately invented, and perfected, explained, commented on, and, with all possible brevity, and perspicuity, in the hiddest, and most re-searched mysteries, from the very first grounds of the science it selfe, proved, and convincingly demonstrated. By Sir Thomas Urquhart of Cromartie Knight. Published for the benefit of those that are mathematically affected.
An institution trigonometricall. VVherin demonstratively and perspicuously is exhibited the doctrine of the dimension of plane and sphericall triangles after the most exact and compendious way by tables both of sines, tangents, secants; and logarithmes. By Henry Gellibrand professor of astronomy in Gresham Colledge.
