Product Description
PREFACE.
THE fact that this work has already reached a seventh
edition has not merely delighted me but has, in no small
degree, perplexed and puzzled me. Comparing its prospects
with those of its more recent rivals, which have had the
unquestionable advantage of being '''Titten by authors in
close touch with the present phase of the everMchanging
atmosphere of Cambridge, they appeared to be by no meanR
hopeful :-but in this, it seems, I was unduly despundent.
I must, therefore, attribute its continued success to the
main features in which it differs from its concurrents:viz.
its plain, almost blunt, language; and its absolute freeM
dom from pedantry:-especially that pm-ticularly dangerous
species which exaggerates molehills into mountains, nnd
leaves the unfortunat.e reader, who has toiled through some
laborious investigat.ion or explana.tion, utterly mystified as
to the necessity for it :-perhaps even ignorant of its object.
(It is scarcely possible to overestimate

Product Description
First published in 1873, this co-authored biography of the Scottish physicist, Alpine explorer, and university leader James David Forbes (1809-1868) includes extracts from Forbes' letters. John Campbell Shairp, Forbes' successor as principal of the United College of the University of St Andrews, writes of Forbes' personal, family, and professional life, including his years at St Andrews. Forbes' student and his successor in the Natural Philosophy chair at the University of Edinburgh, Peter Guthrie Tait, himself an accomplished mathematical physicist who co-wrote, with Lord Kelvin, Treatise on Natural Philosophy (1867), discusses Forbes' scientific achievements and contributions. A. Adams-Reilly, a celebrated Irish mountaineer, cartographer, and friend of Forbes, writes of the latter's Alpine travels and his work and interest in glaciers. In Shairp's words, in addition to all of his academic accomplishments, Forbes was also Britain's 'father of Alpine adventure'. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Treatise on Natural Philosophy Review
I began reading many of the treatises of the "masters" and their references.I found this particular treatise referenced more than once by Maxwell in his E&M treatise.The work is an encyclopedic review for those already familiar with kinematics and dynamics.This is not a teaching text containing derivations but a reference work along the lines of "Methods of Theoretical Physics" by Morris and Feshbach.

I loved the sections on instrumentation demonstrating the extent you must actually go to master experimental physics.I also agree more with the philosophy of that time which treated science as simply the exploration for explanations of phenomena using mathematics as the consolidating shorthand tool (bottom up approach) rather than the present day lifeless mathematics presentations with little if any connection to the physics (top down approach).
