Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dialogues, Illustrative of the First Principles of Mechanics and Astronomy: Designed to Form a Prize-Book in Schools, and a Help to Natives Desirous of Scientific Knowledge
The author of these little volumes feels himself extremely happy in the opportunity which this publication affords him of acknowledging the obli gations he is under to the authors 0 Practical Education, for the pleasure and instruction which he has derived'from that valuable work. To this he is solely indebted for the idea of writing on the subject of Natural Philosophy for the use of chil dren. How far his plan corresponds with that sug gested by Mr. Edgeworth in his chapter on Mecha nics, must be left with a candid public to decide.
