Dr Roche now fills this gap with an account which treats dimensional analysis, the quantity calculus, the base calculus, the calculus of error analysis, etc. It also uses the insights of historical study to attempt to clarify and solve well-known difficulties in the present-day mathematics of measurement. It is designed for physicists, engineers, mathematicians and historians of science.
