Mr. YOUNG'S Elements of the Integral Calculus forms the third
part of a course intended to supply the student with a sufficient view of the principles of modern analytical science. We have had occasion to be well satisfied with the accuracy and neatness of the " Analytical Geometry" and the Differential Calculus ; and from the but superficial examination we have hitherto been able to give the Integral Calculus, we doubt not but that the author has put together a careful and well-arranged compilation, highly deserving of the attention of mathematical students, who are not bound, by the fact of belonging to a particular school or college, to purchase far less deserving works. We remember the time when such a work as this would have been invaluable, and we do not think that any late publication has superseded the necessity of it. No comparison can be made between it and the hasty translation of LA CROIX, by Messrs. PEACOCK and WHEWELL.
