The main purpose of this classic text is to demonstrate how Newtonian gravitational Theory and Euclidean geometry can be used and developed in the earth\'s environment.
Book chapters include discussions of the earth\'s gravitational field, with special emphasis on spherical harmonies and the potential of the ellipsoid; matrices and orbital geometry; elliptic motion, lin.
The second is to collect and explain some of the mathematical techniques developed for measuring the earth by satellite.
