page no 274 note * For the benefit of those readers who may be unacquainted with this development of vector algebra, and who have only heard of tensors in the rather formidable context of the mathematical theory of relativity, we may explain that the tensor algebra here referred to is not concerned with that elaborate development, but is much simpler.
