Abstract
THE publication of this text-book marks another step forward in the evolution of one of the most recent developments of engineering and is therefore to be welcomed. Road engineering in its modern form may be said to be contemporaneous with the motor car, the advent of which has again brought a large portion of the national transport on to the roads after an eclipse which lasted from the decline of the stage coach, or even the Roman period, until the introduction of the internal-combustion engine for road vehicles.
