Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Essential Elements of Practical Mechanics, Based on the Principle of Work: Designed for Engineering Students

Formerly, the science of mechanics was one of the last branches of applied mathematics to which a student was induced to turn his particular attention, but now the case is difl'erent. Since the wealth and power of nations de pended so much on the application of the sciences to the mechanical and industrial arts, a knowledge of practical mechanics becomes of paramount importance, not only to engineering students, but also to capitalists, statesmen, and merchants, many of whom are but little skilled m the higher departments of mathematics.
