The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Second referee's report by Andrew Russell Forsyth, on a paper 'On simultaneous partial differential equations' by Alfred Cardew Dixon

Reference number: RR/14/148

Date: 1900

Description

Not recommended for publication in the 'Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society'. Agrees with the criticisms of Micaiah John Muller Hill [RR/14/146]. Continues to find issue with the author's use of the term 'general'. Considers mathematical papers such as this to be suited to mathematical journals.
