A Treatise on Statics Containing the Fundamental Principles of Electrostatics and Elasticity (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from A Treatise on Statics Containing the Fundamental Principles of Electrostatics and Elasticity
The present edition of this work is, I venture to think, a' considerable improvement on the previous one. With such a large number of examples, not only were misprints, but mistakes, more or less trifling, almost inevitable; but, owing chiefly to the kindness Of correspondents, very few of these can remain in this edition.
My acknowledgments are, in the first place, due to Mr. Robert Graham, of Kingstown, who supplied me with a long list of corrections and some good suggestions. Mr. J. C. Malet kindly called my attention to some mistakes which I had overlooked in the chapter on Attractions. In some places where a better choice of language was possible for the elucidation of the subject, I have adopted alterations kindly pointed out by Colonel Chesney.
In the earlier part of the book the examples have been subjected to a rearrangement, the order of relative difficulty being better kept in view; and some of them which were of the purely mathematical and fantastic character have been expunged.
Besides alterations of the above description, four 'others deserve special mention.
