Abstract

(1) THE contents of this volume fall into three sections: (a) plane geometry; (b) graphics; (c) descriptive geometry. The first deals with the calculation of areas and volumes, the fundamental geometrical constructions and the chief properties of the circle and conic. In the second the student is shown how to apply graphical methods to the solution of practical problems in mechanics, considerable space is devoted to the consideration of harmonic motion and systems of frameworks, and allusion is made to the use of vector products. The last section, which occupies nearly 200 pages, contains as full an account of the methods of practical solid geometry as any ordinary technical student is likely to require. The diagrams are clear and the quality of the examples is distinctly good.
