Author: Dr. A.M.Low, Hardbound, 196 Pages, ASIN: B00NYFMB46 - Second Edition, 1916 - **Very rare book in excellent condition** I do not think this little book requires anything in the nature of a preface. It has been quite frankly written in a novel manner with the earnest -hope that it may give cause for successful thinking and the consequent development of successful ideas. it is not a mere catalogue of designs. The technical reader will look for nothing. more valuable than some novel suggestions. To the non-technical reader for whom it is intended, I appeal for patience in his study, for I have endeavoured to set forth from first principles the reasons for every step. In this manner I sincerely trust that, however unconsciously, the reader will develop the system of thinking originally and not too far according to rules and regulations.When this fact is once grasped, no problem can ever be too difficult of solution, not even those connected with the coming engine—the two-stroke motor. I would point out that in a study of this sort it is impossible to group every subject together as in a catalogue. It is necessary to refer to certain sub•ects--carburation is an instance—many times in the course of the book. A copious index has been provided with the object of linking up this and similar references. A. M. LOW, D.Sc.
