The author proposes to deal with all works on astronomy in chronological order in this chapter on mean places. Their points of differences, if any, with matters pertaining to other Adhikāras from different works, as also some special points worth mentioning, have been treated in subsequent chapters ; otherwise, all information about the works has been given in this very chapter on mean places. Some works are considered divine while some authors have more than one book to their credit ; hence, the following account is arranged under the names of authors, and at places, under the titles of their works.
