Excerpt from Graphical Statics: Two Treatises on the Graphical Calculus and Reciprocal Figures in Graphical Statics

For some years I had used a rough English manuscript summary of Professor cremona's works on the Grap/iieai Calculus and Reciprocal Figures, while reading with engineer ing students of University College, London. As English versions were much wanted, I was advised by Professors pearson and kennedy to ask the consent of Professor cremona to my undertaking their translation, and at the same time they supported my application to the Delegates of the Clarendon Press that they should become the publishers. To both applications a most cordial consent was given; and I take the opportunity of thanking both the Author and the Delegates for the trust they have reposed in me. The trans lations have been revised by Professor cremona and certain portions (in particular Chap. I. Of Reciprocal Figures) have been entirely written by him for the present English edition. I regret that a long delay has occurred in the appearance of this book, due chiefly to pressure of work both on the part of myself and Professor cremona.
