← The First Six Books of the Elements of Euclid

Preface

Production Note

Cornell University Library produced this volume to replace the
irreparably deteriorated original. It was scanned using Xerox
software and equipment at 600 dots per inch resolution and com-
pressed prior to storage using CCITT Group 4 compression. The
digital data were used to create Cornell’s replacement volume
on paper that meets the ANSI Standard Z39.48-1984. The produc-
tion of this volume was supported in part by the Commission on
Preservation and Access and the Xerox Corporation. Digital
file copyright by Cornell University Library 1991.

Transcriber’s Note: The Index has been regenerated to fit the pagination of this edition. Despite the author’s stated hope that “few misprints have escaped detection” there were several, which have here been corrected and noted at the end of the text.
