Página 217 - Hence a vector acts versorially. To which Mr Heaviside, in fierce denunciation : " In a given equation [in quaternion vector analysis, that is] one vector may be a vector and another a quaternion. Or the same vector in one and the same equation may be a vector in one place and a quaternion (versor or turner) in another. This amalgamation of the vectorial and quaternionic functions is very puzzling. You never know how things may turn out.

It will not be claimed that the notions of quaternions will apply to such a space, except indeed in such a limited and artificial manner as to rob them of their value in a system of geometrical algebra. But vectors exist...
