  • Image is of an "involution" (exponentiation) diagram by Charles Sanders Peirce (1839-1914).
  • Image published in The New Elements of Mathematics, by Charles S. Peirce, Carolyn Eisele (editor), Humanities Press, Atlantic Highlands, N.J., 1976.
  • Image reprinted in review of Peirce/Eisele by Arthur W. Burks in Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society Volume 84, Number 5, September 1978
  • Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society has digitized all backissues from 1881-1981 "with unrestricted availability", see http://projecteuclid.org/DPubS?service=UI&version=1.0&verb=Display&handle=euclid.bams .
  • Said review is in a PDF http://projecteuclid.org/DPubS/Repository/1.0/Disseminate?view=body&id=pdf_1&handle=euclid.bams/1183541145 over 700KB, I want to put it into Wikisource form. It includes three diagrams by C.S. Peirce. This image is of the second diagram.
    • 1st diagram: multiplication for "twice three"
    • 2nd diagram: involution (exponentiation) for "2³"
    • 3rd diargam: involution (exponentition) for "3²"
