COMMENTS

Recursion exists for coefficients, but is too complicated to use without a computer algebra system

EXAMPLE

x - x^2/4 + x^3 * 5/48 + ...

MATHEMATICA

n = 18 ;

a[x_] = Sum[c[k] k! x^k, {k, 1, n}];

sa = Series[a[x], {x, 0, n}];

coes = CoefficientList[ ComposeSeries[sa, sa] -

Series[Log[1+x], {x, 0, n}], x] // Rest ;

eq = Reduce[((# == 0) & /@ coes)];

Table[c[k] k!, {k, 1, n}] /. First[Solve[eq, Table[c[k], {k, 1, n}]]] // Denominator
