Excerpt from The Civil Engineer's Pocket-Book
Bould experts in engineering complain that they do not find anything of interest in this volume, the writer would merely remind them that it was not his intention that they should. The book has been prepared for young members of the profession and one Of the leading Objects has been to elucidate, in plain English, a few important elementary principles which the savants have envel Oped in such a haze of mystery as to render pursuit hopeless to any but a confirmed mathematician.
Comparatively few engineers are good mathematicians; and in the writer's opinion, it is fortunate that such is the case; for nature rarely combines high mathematical talent, with that practical tact, and observation of outward things, so essential to a successful engineer.
