Abstract
AS the author claims in the preface, this is a student's text-boot of American origin, and as such is an admirable exposition of the subject. It gives worked-out examples in the text and further examples for the student at the end of each division. This is a principle that has always been advocated by educationists, but seldom followed by writers of books on aeronautical subjects up to the present day.
