Présentation de l'éditeur
The following Treatise is an attempt to exhibit, in small compass, the principles of Mechanical Science in its present improved state, and to supply theE nglish student with a clear and comprehensive manual of instruction on this important branch of Natural Philosophy. Our language already possesses some very valuable works in this department of science, as for instance, the treatises of Professors Gregory and Whewell ;works which, for the abundance of real information that they convey, are not, perhaps, to be equalled by any similar performances of our continental neighbours. The bulk and consequent high price, however, of these works must necessarily place them beyond the reach of many students desirous to be informed on the subjects of which they treat; and there can, I think, be no doubt that at a time like the present, when a taste for analytical science is so widely extending itself, a treatise, of moderate price, on Analytical Mechanics, if well executed, would prove acceptable both to teachers and to students. Under these impressions I have been led to undertake this elementary Treatise, with the hope that by economizing the paper, and adopting a small clear type. I might be able to compress into one small volume a course of instruction on elementary mechanics, of extent amply sufficient for all the purposes of academical education.
