Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive examination of the construction, adjustment, testing, and use of mathematical instruments, emphasizing drawing and measuring. Originally published in 1849, the author's work has become a standard text, used in educational establishments and selected by the Admiralty to form part of a midshipman's kit. This updated edition includes extensive revisions, with added information on optical instruments, surveying, and astronomical instruments. The author thoroughly describes the use of drawing boards, pens, and rulers, as well as more complex instruments such as the centrolinead and beam compasses. The book also covers techniques for drawing straight lines, arcs, circles, and ellipses. With its clear explanations and detailed illustrations, this book remains a valuable resource for engineers, architects, artists, and anyone interested in the use of mathematical instruments. It offers insights into the evolution of these instruments and their role in shaping the understanding of geometry, engineering, and related fields. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282294113_0
