PRESS NOTICES.
"The appearance of a translation into English of this remarkable book
should serve to revivify in this country [England] the somewhat
stagnating treatment of its subject, and should call up the thoughts
which puzzle us when we think of them, and that is not sufficiently
often.... Professor Mach is a striking instance of the combination of
great mathematical knowledge with experimental skill, as exemplified not
only by the elegant illustrations of mechanical principles which abound
in this treatise, but also from his brilliant experiments on the
photography of bullets.... A careful study of Professor Mach's work, and
a treatment with more experimental illustration, on the lines laid down
in the interesting diagrams of his _Science of Mechanics_, will do much
to revivify theoretical mechanical science, as developed from the
elements by rigorous logical treatment."--Prof. A. G. Greenhill, in
_Nature_, London.
"Those who are curious to learn how the principles of mechanics have
been evolved, from what source they take their origin, and how far they
can be deemed of positive and permanent value, will find Dr. Mach's able
treatise entrancingly interesting.... The book is a remarkable one in
many respects, while the mixture of history with the latest scientific
principles and absolute mathematical deductions makes it exceedingly
attractive."--_Mechanical World_, Manchester and London, England.
"Mach's Mechanics is unique. It is not a text-book, but forms a useful
supplement to the ordinary text-book. The latter is usually a skeleton
outline, full of mathematical symbols and other abstractions. Mach's
book has 'muscle and clothing,' and being written from the historical
standpoint, introduces the leading contributors in succession, tells
what they did and how they did it, and often what manner of men they
were. Thus it is that the pages glow, as it were, with a certain
humanism, quite delightful in a scientific book.... The book is
handsomely printed, and deserves a warm reception from all interested in
the progress of science."--_The Physical Review_, New York and London.
"Mr. T. J. McCormack, by his effective translation, where translation
was no light task, of this masterly treatise upon the earliest and most
fundamental of the sciences, has rendered no slight service to the
English speaking student. The German and English languages are generally
accounted second to none in their value as instruments for the
expression of scientific thought; but the conversion bodily of an
abstruse work from one into the other, so as to preserve all the meaning
and spirit of the original and to set it easily and naturally into its
new form, is a task of the greatest difficulty, and when performed so
well as in the present instance, merits great commendation. Dr. Mach has
created for his own works the severest possible standard of judgment. To
expect no more from the books of such a master than from the elementary
productions of an ordinary teacher in the science would be undue
moderation. Our author has lifted what, to many of us, was at one time a
course of seemingly unprofitable mental gymnastics, encompassed only at
vast expenditure of intellectual effort, into a study possessing a deep
philosophical value and instinct with life and interest. 'No profit
grows where is no pleasure ta'en,' and the emancipated collegian will
turn with pleasure from the narrow methods of the text-book to where the
science is made to illustrate, by a treatment at once broad and deep,
the fundamental connexion between all the physical sciences, taken
together."--_The Mining Journal_, London, England.
"As a history of mechanics, the work is admirable."--_The Nation_, New
York.
"An excellent book, admirably illustrated."--_The Literary World_,
London, England.
"Sets forth the elements of its subject with a lucidity, clearness, and
force unknown in the mathematical text-books ... is admirably fitted to
serve students as an introduction on historical lines to the principles
of mechanical science."--_Canadian Mining and Mechanical Review_,
Ottawa, Can.
"A masterly book.... To any one who feels that he does not know as much
as he ought to about physics, we can commend it most heartily as a
scholarly and able treatise ... both interesting and profitable."--A. M.
Wellington, in _Engineering News_, New York.
"The book as a whole is unique, and is a valuable addition to any
library of science or philosophy.... Reproductions of quaint old
portraits and vignettes give piquancy to the pages. The numerous
marginal titles form a complete epitome of the work; and there is that
invaluable adjunct, a good index. Altogether the publishers are to be
congratulated upon producing a technical work that is thoroughly
attractive in its make-up."--Prof. D. W. Hering, in _Science_.
"There is one other point upon which this volume should be commended,
and that is the perfection of the translation. It is a common fault that
books of the greatest interest and value in the original are oftenest
butchered or made ridiculous by a clumsy translator. The present is a
noteworthy exception."--_Railway Age_.
"The book is admirably printed and bound.... The presswork is
unexcelled by any technical books that have come to our hands for some
time, and the engravings and figures are all clearly and well
executed."--_Railroad Gazette_.
TESTIMONIALS OF PROMINENT EDUCATORS.
"I am delighted with Professor Mach's _Science of Mechanics_."--_M. E.
Cooley_, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Ann Arbor, Mich.
"You have done a good service to science in publishing Mach's _Science
of Mechanics_ in English. I shall take every opportunity to recommend it
to young students as a source of much interesting information and
inspiration."--_M. I. Pupin_, Professor of Mechanics, Columbia College,
New York.
"Mach's _Science of Mechanics_ is an admirable ... book."--_Prof. E. A.
Fuertes_, Director of the College of Civil Engineering of Cornell
University, Ithaca, N. Y.
"I congratulate you upon producing the work in such good style and in so
good a translation. I bought a copy of it a year ago, very shortly after
you issued it. The book itself is deserving of the highest admiration;
and you are entitled to the thanks of all English-speaking physicists
for the publication of this translation."--_D. W. Hering_, Professor of
Physics, University of the City of New York, New York.
"I have read Mach's _Science of Mechanics_ with great pleasure. The book
is exceedingly interesting."--_W. F. Magie_, Professor of Physics,
Princeton University, Princeton, N. J.
"The _Science of Mechanics_ by Mach, translated by T. J. McCormack, I
regard as a most valuable work, not only for acquainting the student
with the history of the development of Mechanics, but as serving to
present to him most favorably the fundamental ideas of Mechanics and
their rational connexion with the highest mathematical developments. It
is a most profitable book to read along with the study of a text-book of
Mechanics, and I shall take pleasure in recommending its perusal by my
students."--_S. W. Robinson_, Professor of Mechanical Engineering, Ohio
State University, Columbus, Ohio.
"I am delighted with Mach's 'Mechanics.' I will call the attention to it
of students and instructors who have the Mechanics or Physics to study
or teach."--_J. E. Davies_, University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wis.
"There can be but one opinion as to the value of Mach's work in this
translation. No instructor in physics should be without a copy of
it."--_Henry Crew_, Professor of Physics in the Northwestern University,
Evanston, Ill.

PRESS NOTICES.
"A most fascinating volume, treating of phenomena in which all are
interested, in a delightful style and with wonderful clearness. For
lightness of touch and yet solid value of information the chapter 'Why
Has Man Two Eyes?' has scarcely a rival in the whole realm of popular
scientific writing."--_The Boston Traveller_.
"Truly remarkable in the insight they give into the relationship of the
various fields cultivated under the name of Physics.... A vein of humor
is met here and there reminding the reader of Heaviside, never offending
one's taste. These features, together with the lightness of touch with
which Mr. McCormack has rendered them, make the volume one that may be
fairly called rare. The spirit of the author is preserved in such
attractive, really delightful, English that one is assured nothing has
been lost by translation."--Prof. Henry Crew, in _The Astrophysical
Journal_.
"A very delightful and useful book.... The author treats some of the
most recondite problems of natural science, in so charmingly untechnical
a way, with such a wealth of bright illustration, as makes his meaning
clear to the person of ordinary intelligence and education.... This is a
work that should find a place in every library, and that people should
be encouraged to read."--_Daily Picayune_, New Orleans.
"In his translation Mr. McCormack has well preserved the frank, simple,
and pleasing style of this famous lecturer on scientific topics.
Professor Mach deals with the live facts, the salient points of science,
and not with its mysticism or dead traditions. He uses the simplest of
illustrations and expresses himself clearly, tersely, and with a
delightful freshness that makes entertaining reading of what in other
hands would be dull and prosy."--_Engineering News_, N. Y.
"The general reader is led by plain and easy steps along a delightful
way through what would be to him without such a help a complicated maze
of difficulties. Marvels are invented and science is revealed as the
natural foe to mysteries."--_The Chautauquan_.
"The beautiful quality of the work is not marred by abstruse discussions
which would require a scientist to fathom, but is so simple and so clear
that it brings us into direct contact with the matter treated."--_The
Boston Post_.
"A masterly exposition of important scientific truths."--_Scotsman_,
Edinburgh.
"These lectures by Dr. Mach are delightfully simple and frank; there is
no dryness or darkness of technicalities, and science and common life do
not seem separated by a gulf.... The style is admirable, and the whole
volume seems gloriously alive and human."--_Providence Journal_, R. I.
"The non-scientific reader who desires to learn something of modern
scientific theories, and the reasons for their existence, cannot do
better than carefully study these lectures. The English is excellent
throughout, and reflects great credit on the translator."--_Manufacturer
and Builder_.
"We like the quiet, considerate intelligence of these
lectures."--_Independent_, New York.
"Professor Mach's lectures are so pleasantly written and illumined with
such charm of illustration that they have all the interest of lively
fiction."--_New York Com. Advertiser_.
"The literary and philosophical suggestiveness of the book is very
rich." _Hartford Seminary Record_.
"All are presented so skilfully that one can imagine that Professor
Mach's hearers departed from his lecture-room with the conviction that
science was a matter for abecedarians. Will please those who find the
fairy tales of science more absorbing than fiction."--_The Pilot_,
Boston.
"Professor Mach ... is a master in physics.... His book is a good one
and will serve a good purpose, both for instruction and
suggestion."--Prof. A. E. Dolbear, in _The Dial_.
"The most beautiful ideas are unfolded in the exposition."--_Catholic
World_, New York.

"A wonderfully original little book. Like everything he writes a work of
genius."--_Prof. W. James_ of Harvard.
"I consider each work of Professor Mach a distinct acquisition to a
library of science."--_Prof. D. W. Hering_, New York University.
"There is no work known to the writer which, in its general scientific
bearings, is more likely to repay richly thorough study. We are all
interested in nature in one way or another, and our interests can only
be heightened and clarified by Mach's wonderfully original and wholesome
book. It is not saying too much to maintain that every intelligent
person should have a copy of it,--and should study that copy."--_Prof.
J. E. Trevor_, Cornell.
"Students may here make the acquaintance of some of the open questions
of sensation and at the same time take a lesson in the charm of
scientific modesty that can hardly be excelled."--_Prof. E. C. Sanford_,
Clark University.
"It exhibits keen observation and acute thought, with many new and
interesting experiments by way of illustration. Moreover, the style is
light and even lively--a rare merit in a German prose work, and still
rarer in a translation of one."--_The Literary World_, London.
