Excerpt from A Manual of the Mechanics of Engineering and of the Construction of Machines, With an Introduction to the Calculus, Vol. 1 of 3: Designed as a Text-Book for Technical Schools and Colleges, and for the Use of Engineers, Architects, Etc.; Theoretical Mechanics

It would have been easier for me to have given my book a more scientific form but it would then have met with less favor, as it is intended for practical men.

From another stand-point also the book can easily and with equal injustice be found fault with. Any one, who has had some practical experience, will have observed how little theory is made use of, and how Often it is put in the back-ground and looked upon with disfavor by practical men. The fault of this is no doubt due in great measure to that method of instruction, which condemns the study of science for the sake Of its applications.
