To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is based mainly on Mathematics and Physics, and to a less extent on Chemistry, Geology, and Metal- lurgy. Engineering has been called ' Applied Physics ' ; in the same way Medicine might be called ' Applied Physiology '. It is not necessary to describe the teaching of Mathe- matics, Physics, or Chemistry, but it will be well to consider how Engineering proper should be taught. The teaching should be partly bookwork, taught in lectures, and partly experimental measurement taught in the labora...tory. The names of many of the subjects are already familiar in Oxford Statics, Hydrostatics, Dyna- mics, Electricity, Magnetism, Thermodynamics, and so on, but the engineering treatment of these subjects differs considerably from the traditional treatment. Statics, for instance, is used by mathematicians as a peg on which to hang ingeniously contrived problems involving for their solution elegant mathematics, and the solution required is a general one. To the engineer the first part of a statical problem is ascertaining what the forces are ENGINEERING SCIENCE 13 which he has to deal with, and the next is to find the simplest solution of the particular case before him.
