Scarce second enlarged edition. of volume 2 (Angewandten Functionen). "His greatest work, Handbuch der Kugelfunctionen was first published in 1861. The second edition (1878-81) of Heine's book was still a standard compendium on spherical functions well into the 1930's if one considers the frequency with which it was quoted; that this edition has never been reprinted, however,belies this impression." (DSB). (Heine's "Handbuch der Kugelfunctionen, Theorie und Anwendungen, zweiter Band")
