Transcriber’s Notes:
Underscores “_” before and after a word or phrase indicate _italics_
in the original text.
Equal signs “=” before and after a word or phrase indicate =bold= in
the original text.
A single underscore after a symbol indicates a subscript.
Carat symbol “^” designates a superscript.
A bold arrow in front of a letter indicates a vector,
e.g. ⮕M means “the vector M”.
Small capitals have been converted to SOLID capitals.
Illustrations have been moved so they do not break up paragraphs.
Typographical and punctuation errors have been silently corrected.
