Abstract
THIS is a reprint, with additions, of a course of Cantor Lectures which the author delivered during 1890 before the Society of Arts. The book, it may be stated at the outset, is an excellent account of electro-magnetic mechanism, and abounds in information at once of his torical, scientific, and practical value. Evidently the author is willing to spare no pains to give completeness to any work of this kind he undertakes, and the present book, like his treatise on dynamo-electric machinery, will no doubt be widely read and appreciated.
The Electro-magnet and Electro-magnetic Mechanism.
By S. P. Thompson (London: E. and F. N. Spon, 1891.)
