Octavo, cloth (hardcover), gilt lettering, 36 pp + [iv] pp ads. Very Good. From Preface: The need for a small book of this type arose in the work of teaching the use of the slide rule to engineering and industrial students; and this Manual is a direct result of sets of notes issued to classes consisting of engineering students and men of more or less practical experience. The book is not a treatise in any sense, its aim being to develop the ideas of the operator rather than to give empirical rules. Those rules that have been given are for the purpose of training the student in the formulation of processes, and it is not intended that they shall ever be committed to memory. The examples have been taken largely from Hydraulics and Mechanics, and while the actual field covered by specific problems is narrow, the idea has been to make them fundamental. It is hoped that these examples will serve the purpose of development better than the more specialized problems arising in different branches of engineering.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces the reader to the slide rule, a simple yet powerful analog computer that provides remarkable accuracy given its simplicity. First invented in the 1600s, slide rules were widely used by scientists and engineers through the 1970s before the advent of electronic calculators. The slide rule, in addition to its historical importance, provides an excellent demonstration of many mathematical concepts. Users must have a good understanding of logarithms to use a slide rule, and the author provides several methods for using logs to perform multiplication, division, and exponentiation. The author also describes numerous special scales and techniques that make the slide rule particularly well-suited to solving problems in physics and engineering. Through the study of the slide rule, this book provides a unique perspective on the power and the limitations of analog computation. Its use requires not only mathematical knowledge but also an understanding of scientific notation and estimation. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of computing, or who wishes to gain a deeper understanding of the mathematical underpinnings of science and engineering. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
