EXTRACTS FROM REVIEWS.

"It is an excellent treatise, well adapted for its purpose both by the amount of its contents, and by the arrangement of them, and is evidently the work of an accomplished teacher."-Academy.

"Of all the attempts to improve the imperishable work of the mighty Alexandrian geometer Mr. Nixon's appears to us the most successful. His addenda, exercises and appendices are very notably good."-Knowledge.

"A glance at Mr. Nixon's pages is sufficient to demonstrate the superiority of his Euclid to those hitherto in use. Type, diagrams, and arrangement combine to give a distinctness, perspicuity, and conciseness of expression never before attempted. It is altogether an admirable edition of Euclid, and a boon to the pupil no less than to the teacher."-Bookseller.
