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.

To the English gentrie, and all others studious of the mathematicks, which shall bee readers hereof. The just apologie of Wil: Oughtred, against the slaunderous insimulations of Richard Delamain, in a pamphlet called Grammelogia, or the mathematicall ring, or mirisica logarithmorum projectio circularis.

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.

The sea-mans practice, contayning a fundamentall probleme in navigation, experimentally verified: namely, touching the compasse of the earth and sea, and the quantity of a degree in our English measures. Also, an exact method or forme of keeping a reckoning at sea, in an kinde or manner of sayling. With certaine tables and other rules usefull in navigation. As also in the plotting and surveying of places. The latitude of the principall places in England. The finding of currents at sea; and what allowance is to be given in respect of them. By Richard Norwood, reade of the mathematicks.

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.

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.
