The author has endeavoured throughout to explain thoroughly the principles underlying the matters dealt with, as mere technical descriptions, unaccompanied by such explanations, do not result in an intelligent grasp of the subject being obtained. The connection between heat and work has been kept prominent throughout ; and the use of the various formulae given has been illustrated by examples embodied in the text. Every care has been taken to include the most recent and reliable data in the numerous tables, and the recent advances in the science have, as far as possible, been given mention.A number of original experimental methods and commercial tests will be found in the book, based on the author's laboratory experience.
