Mathematical tables, contrived after a most comprehensive method: viz, a table of logarithms, from 1 to 101000. To which is added (upon the same Page) the Differences and Proportional Parts, whereby the Logarithm of any Number under 10,000,000 may easily be found. Tables of natural sines, tangents, and secants, with their Logarithms, and Logarithmic Differences to every Minute of the Quadrant. Tables of natural versed sines, and their Logarithms, to every Minute of the Quadrant. With their construction and use. By Mr. Briggs Dr. Wallis Mr. Halley Savillian Professors of Geometry in the University of Oxford. Mr. Abr. Sharp. The whole being more Correct and Compleat than any Tables Extant.

Geodaesia: or, The art of surveying, and measuring land made easy. Shewing, by plain and practical rules, to survey, protract, cast up, reduce or divide any piece of land whatsoever; with new tables for the ease of the surveyor in reducing the measure of land: moreover, a more facile and sure way of surveying by the chain, than has hitherto been taught. As also, to lay out new lands in America, or elsewhere: and how to make a perfect map of a river's mouth or harbour; with several other things never before published in the English language.
