Product Description

Excerpt from Descriptive Geometry for Students in Engineering Science and Architecture: A Carefully Graded Course of Instruction

The writer offers the contents of this Text Book as the result of over twenty years' constant teaching of Descriptive Geometry, and because he has found that a logical presentation of the subject, concerning itself largely with the best sequence possible, and with the introduction, at an early stage, of practical applications and well-graded exercises by which the first rules and principles can be practised, is far more preferable and satisfactory in its results than the mode of procedure and division of the subject matter commonly adopted in other text books on the subject.

Difficult and complex phases of Descriptive Geometry and problems beyond what the average student has time to assimilate during a limited college course, and beyond What is worth while in such a course, are avoided, because of the tendency for students to become thereby discouraged and to acquire a distaste for what should otherwise prove to be an interesting subject of study.
