Abstract
A BOOK on elementary mechanics, which commences by addressing the reader as my young friend, and immediately after, in a lengthy paragraph, draws a comparison between the student and the axolotl, does not seem very promising as a scientific work. This feeling is strengthened when a little further on, in speaking of the laws of motion, one of the authors writes:— The Elements of Mechanics. A Text-Book for Colleges and Technical Schools. By W. S. Franklin B. Macnutt. Pp. xi + 283. (New York: The Macmillan Co.; London: Macmillan and Co., Ltd., 1907.) Price 6s. 6d. net.
