Preface to the 2016 Edition
The present volume contains the translation of Felix Klein’s “Präzisions- und Approximationsmathematik”, which appeared in 1928 as volume III of the series Elementarmathematik von einem höheren Standpunkte aus1 (Elementary mathematics from a higher standpoint). In turn, the 1928 edition was a re-edition of the lecture course delivered by Felix Klein in 1901 with the title “Anwendung der Differential- und Integralrechnung auf die Geometrie: eine Revision der Prinzipien”, published in 1902 in lithographic form2 (a reprint of 1908, edited by Conrad Heinrich Müller, left the text essentially unchanged).
