Originally published in 1911 as number thirteen in the Cambridge Tracts in Mathematics and Mathematical Physics series, this book presents a general survey of the problem of the 27 lines upon the cubic surface. Illustrative figures and a bibliography are also included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in cubic surfaces and the history of mathematics.

Historical summary; Introduction; 1. Preliminary theorems; 2. The double six configuration. Auxiliary theorems; 3. The trihedral pair configuration; 4. Analytical investigation of the twenty-seven lines and forty-five triple tangent planes for the general equation of the cubric surface; 5. The construction of a model of a double six; 6.
