Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of the Elements of the Differential and Integral Calculus

The conceptions of space and of number are the subject matter of mathematical investigations. These investigations accordingly diverge into two main branches: Geometry and Analysis. It thus appears that Mathematics are of fundamental importance to all our knowledge of Nature: for our representations of space contain the simplest properties which are common to all things in the surrounding world; and accu rate comparison or measurement of quantities leads always to concrete numbers of the units employed: in order to understand the result, we require a knowledge of numbers and of their combinations.
