Abstract
IN no department of applied science has advance in the last few years been more striking than in the application of the continuous current motor to traction purposes. This rapid advance has, however, until quite recently been rather in the United States, in Canada, and on the Continent, than in our own country. The appearance of this book by Prof. Carus-Wilson, of the McGill University, dealing with those problems which face the electrical engineer when deciding upon the choice of motors, is therefore singularly opportune.
Electrodynamics: The Direct Current Motor.
