Excerpt from Elementary Treatise Hydromechanics: With Numerous Examples

The book is divided into two parts, namely, Hydrostatics and' Hydrokinetics. The former is subdivided into three, and the latter into four chapters; and at the ends of the chapters a large number of examples is given, with a view to illustrate every part of the subject. Many of these ex amples were prepared specially for this work, and are prac tical questions in hydraulics, etc., taken from every-day life.

In writing this treatise, the aim has been to enunciate clearly the fundamental principles of the theory of Hydro mechanics, to explain some of the most important applica tions of these principles, and to render more general the study of this interesting science, by presenting as simple a view of its principles as is consistent with scientific accu racy. Throughout the work a careful distinction has been made between those propositions which are necessarily true.
