Abstract
IN these days of science applied to industry, it has become the rule for each branch of trade to have its own standard text-book. It is therefore somewhat curious, the motor industry being the highly organised and scientific business that it is, that it does not possess its own -vade mecum. Of writers on matters motorish there are enough, although not many, perhaps, with that engineering and scientific training, together with applied knowledge of the subject, which are essential to one who would take the part of professor to the experts. No doubt that is the rub.
