Abstract
THIS book is interesting as the work of an engineer who is also a professor in one of the leading universities of German, where it is generally conceded that the science and practice of technical education are best understood, and have led in modern times to the most striking practical and commercial developments. The author rightly considers the fundamental principles of mechanics to be the groundwork of all physics, and has chosen mechanics as the subject of his first volume.
