Excerpt from A Text-Book of Mechanical Engineering: Part I. Workshop Practice; Part II. Theory and Examples

While never introducing mathematics unnecessarily, I have stated all the 'steps' that space permitted in such mathematics as have been introduced, and the latter will be found Of but an elementary character, involving only simple equations, fractions, and the use Of tables Of sines and logarithms. The substitution Of graphic treatment for the higher mathematics in many cases will, I think, be appreciated by most students.

As regards the order Of Part II., the Strength Of Materials without doubt comes first, to be followed by Energy and Kinematics; these all assist in the treatment Of Prime Movers worked by gases or liquids. With the knowledge acquired from Part I. And his own experience in the workshop, supplemented by the theory Of Part II the student should be able to commence the study of original design, for he is now in acquaintance both with what theory directs and the workshop restricts.
