Acknowledgement

I must thank Mr. K F W Gumbley for his great generosity in making available his scanned text of this book, which saved me considerable time - a printed copy is available from him - the pages here differ somewhat in that footnotes are gathered at the end and the floating sub-headings moved to form sub-headings at the start of the relevant text.
