Lectures On The Lunar Theory is a book written by John Couch Adams and published in 1900. The book is a collection of lectures that Adams delivered at Cambridge University in the late 19th century. The lectures cover the mathematical theory of the moon's motion, including its orbit, phases, and eclipses. Adams provides a detailed analysis of the lunar theory, including its historical development and its applications to astronomy and navigation. He also discusses the methods used to calculate the moon's position and the challenges involved in making accurate predictions. The book is aimed at advanced students of astronomy and mathematics, as well as professional astronomers and mathematicians. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and science of lunar theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
