Excerpt from Introduction to Heat
The main idea underlying it is that boys are gifted with a large amount of curiosity, and that when they once realise that there is something behind many of the phenomena of everyday life they are prepared to take a good deal of trouble to satisfy their inquisitive instincts.
For this reason appeal is constantly made to the ordinary experiences of a boy, and experiments designed to elucidate these experiences are suggested. At the same time the boy is not made to think that he knows everything; it is hoped, rather, that he may be left in the frame of mind of Oliver Twist - asking for more.
The sections and paragraphs suggested for later reading have been asterisked.
The working of numerous problems and examples is essential to the proper progress of the student.
