Abstract
THE volume under notice is one of a series of technological works, written primarily for the use of workers in the several industries, and deals with the spinning of all kinds of fibres, including asbestos and artificial silk, and also with the spinning of paper yarn. The treatment follows similar lines to those adopted by other writers on spinning, but with rather more attention to function and less description of machinery details than is the case with English works on the subject. Though this book cannot, any more than similar works on spinning technique, be taken as a trustworthy guide with respect to the raw materials, yet considering the wide field covered in less than 400 octavo pages, the treatment is otherwise remarkably adequate; and the book should be found a useful supplement to the usual works on spinning.
