Publisher: Macmillan and co 1887
Number of pages: 420
Description:
The work forms an elementary treatise on demonstrative mechanics. The author has endeavoured to provide a suitable introduction to the study of applied as well as of theoretical Mechanics. Great care has been taken to assume the smallest possible knowledge of pure mathematics, and to furnish the clearest illustration of mechanical principles.
