Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Manual of Physics: Being an Introduction to the Study of Physical Science, Designed for the Use of University Students
The best advice which can be given to a student of physics regard ing the books which he should read is to use separate works written on the various branches of the subject by the leading physicists of the day. Yet this advice has one evident disadvantage. The student who follows it may not get so complete a view of the essential unity and interdependence of the various branches of his subject as it is desirable that he should. And, besides this, there is no doubt that a small volume which gives, as far as is possible, a review of the elements of the whole subject, is a desideratum to the student while in attendance on University classes. I have under taken the writing oi this work in the hope that it may to some extent meet that want.
