Dates of Publication

Summary

Table 1 summarises information concerning the volume and part numbers and the dates of publication of each, for all Transactions under consideration. Page numbers given are for the actual "transactions", i.e. the papers read at meetings, as distinct from the business "proceedings" which have been excluded from the table. Unfortunately it has not been possible to prove conclusively which of the critical items A and C appeared first as the accumulated evidence shows that they were published within a few days of each other or even on the same day. The author's opinion, enlarged upon under "Discussion", is that item C has priority of publication.

Evidence supporting the dates presented in the table is detailed below.
