Abstract
THIS book is, to a certain extent, of the character of a supplement to ordinary treatises on mechanics. It deals with the question of friction by the use of analytical expressions very general in the possibility of their application, on which account perhaps some of the significance of their physical character may be apt to escape the general reader, and the book is thus, perhaps, rather more suitable for advanced than for junior students.
