Introduces quaternions for scientists and engineers, and shows how they can be used in a variety of practical situations. This book is primarily an exposition of the quaternion, a 4-tuple, and its primary application in a rotation operator. It also presents the conventional and familiar 3 x 3 (9-element) matrix rotation operator.
