Book $\text{VIII}$: Theory of Proportions as applied to Number Theory

Critical View
Once the more-or-less profound results about the structure of a geometric sequence of integers has been comprehended, the rest of the book consists of simple examples.

Hence, once the initial few results have been established in contemporary language (and to as high a power as is desired), the Euclidean proofs of these results, and indeed the results themselves, become all but irrelevant.
