Excerpt from An Introduction to the Mechanics of Fluids

IN writing this book, while preserving the usual rigour, the endeavour has been made to impart to it by the character Of the illustrations and examples, a modern and practical ﬂavour which Will render it more widely useful.

It is accordingly hoped that it will be found suitable for candi dates for entrance scholarship and other university examinations, for naval and military preparation, for those technical students taking the Board Of Education's lower examination in Theoretical Mechanics (fluids), or any of a similar character held by the various provincial educational unions.

As to mathematical scope, the calculus is not used, but, In avoiding it, a summational formula is given, and, so far as may be, established. This obviates the necessity Of recourse to a number of special devices and really forms an introduction to the calculus. It thus simplifies the work of the beginner and involves a minimum Of change to those who pass to the calculus at a later stage.

Examples of an Obvious character are freely sprinkled through out the text additional ones, classified and miscellaneous, occurring at the end; thus making a total Of over 500 examples. These are followed by answers and a separate set of solutions and hints respecting those cases specially needing further elucidation.

For kindnesses extended in the preparation Of the work, as to copyright, etc. Thanks are hereby heartily tendered to the following gentlemen and bodies.
