notes: label: Description
content: This volume was the joint work of Paul Rudolf Eugen Jahnke (1861-1921) and Fritz Emde (1873-1951). Jahnke was a mathematician who held a variety of positions in Berlin while Jehnke was an electrical engineer, known for his association with the University of Stuttgart. In 1909 they joined together to produce this volume of useful tables in mathematical physics. This is the 1923 edition of the book. It was also translated into English, and would be reprinted at least as late as 1945.
