This book seeks to improve the existing published tables of the Moon which were constructed by the author in 1853. Advances in mathematics and astronomical observation since then have enabled the author to improve the previous tables by correcting typographical errors, replacing obsolete values with new ones, and adding new tables adapted to a convenient modification of the methods of computing the Moon's latitude. The author's goal is to make the most accurate and reliable lunar tables possible, contributing to the field of astronomy and navigation.
