Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A New Treatise on Elements of Mechanics Establishing Strict Precision in the Meaning of Dynamical Terms: Accompanied With an Appendix on Duodenal Arithmetic and Metrology
A revision of the principles of mechanics is a necessity long felt, and frequently acknowledged in the discussions of learned men, who have heretofore disagreed as to the true meaning of technical terms and the constitution of dynamical quantities. The prevalent discordance on these topics has caused the delay of this publication for over ten years, in which interim various discussions thereupon have been published, both in Europe and in America; indicating the confused condition of the subject.
