Présentation de l'éditeur
Text-book onS team andS team Engines, it has been decided to carry out the late Professor Jamieson spublished intention of extending the scope of the book to cover Heat and Heat Engines. In view of the size to which the original book had grown by its seventeenth edition, it was clearly impossible to effect this extension without dividing the book into two volumes. The present volume consists in a revised form of the earlier book with the omission of the chapters dealing withS team Turbines and Boilers. The new volume, now in preparation, will deal with theL aws ofT hermodynamics, Entropy, Steam Turbines, Steam Boilers, and Internal Combustion Engines. The recent papers of the Associate Membership Examination of the Institution of Civil Engineers have been incorporated by the kind permission of the Council. EWART S. ANDREWS.
