Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maps, Their Uses and Construction: A Short Popular Treatise on the Advantages and Defects of Maps on Various Projection Followed by an Outline of the Principles Involved in Their Construction Everyone from time to time makes use of maps, but hardly anyone ever consults a globe, and it is not going too far to say that in the case of ninety-nine people out of a hundred all their ideas of the relative size, shape, and positions of the various countries in the world are derived entirely from maps, and generally from those on Mercator's projection; yet of these people probably not one in ten knows that the ideas so derived are inaccurate to a degree which may fairly be called misleading.

Download or read book Delphi Complete Harvard Classics and Shelf of Fiction Illustrated written by Charles W. Eliot and published by Delphi Classics. This book was released on 2018-08-01 with total page 33052 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regarded by many as the most comprehensive anthology of all time, ‘The Harvard Classics’ was first published in 1909 under the supervision of the Harvard president Charles W. Eliot. An esteemed academic, Eliot had argued that the elements of a liberal education could be gained by spending 15 minutes a day reading from a collection of books that could fit on a five-foot shelf. The publisher P. F. Collier challenged Eliot to make good on this statement and ‘Dr. Eliot's Five Foot Shelf’ was the result. Eight years later Eliot added a further 20 volumes as a sub-collection titled ‘The Harvard Classics Shelf of Fiction’, offering some of the greatest novels and short stories of world literature. The exhaustive anthology of the ‘The Harvard Classics’ comprises every major literary figure, philosopher, religion, folklore and historical subject up to the twentieth century. This comprehensive eBook presents the complete anthology, with Eliot’s original introductions, numerous illustrations, rare texts and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1) * Beautifully illustrated with images relating to life and works of the authors featured in the anthology * All 51 volumes of ‘The Harvard Classics’ * Eliot’s original concise introductions * Eliot’s general introduction to the anthology (Volume 50) * The complete 20 volume edition of ‘The Harvard Classics Shelf of Fiction’ * Images of how the books were first published, giving your eReader a taste of the original texts * Excellent formatting of the texts * Major works include the original illustrations that accompanied the text * Easily locate the chapters and sections you want to read with individual contents tables * Precise arrangement of texts into the original anthology order * A veritable digital library comprised in a single eBook!

Download or read book Treatise on Optics Classic Reprint written by William N. Griffin and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Treatise on Optics 1. When a material object is presented before us, we become by vision sensible of its existence and figure. In such a case light is said to be propagated from the object to our eyes, and the science of Optics has for its design the examination of the circumstances of such propagation. The science is divided into Geometrical and Physical Optics. In Geometrical Optics the circumstances of the transmission and modification of light are computed on certain laws established by experiment; in Physical Optics these laws are accounted for on hypotheses of the structure of bodies, and of the matter filling the space in which they are placed. In a similar manner in Geometrical Astronomy the phenomena of heavenly bodies are calculated on observed laws which their apparent motions are found to obey; in Physical Astronomy these apparent laws are shewn to result from the hypothesis of Gravitation. The former branch of the science is the subject of the present treatise, wherein from certain laws established by experiment under simple circumstances, the course of light under more complex circumstances is computed, and the results applied to the construction of Optical Instruments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Descriptive Geometry, Vol. 1: Orthographic Projections Professor Church succeeded so well in his efforts to produce a practical and well-adapted treatise that it has continued in use as a text-book for more than forty years in the United States Military Academy and in many other academies, tech nical schools, and colleges. This long-continued use of the book speaks well for its high intrinsic excellence. During the last few years, however, there have taken place many changes in the methods of teaching the subject: and in the problems required. To meet these new demands the present volume is issued. In its preparation much of Professor Church's text has been used, and his concise and lucid style has been preserved.

Download or read book Projection and Realism in Hume s Philosophy written by P. J. E. Kail and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2010-04-22 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his writings, Hume talks of our 'gilding and staining' natural objects, and of the mind's propensity to 'spread itself' on the world. This has led commentators to use the metaphor of 'projection' in connection with his philosophy: Hume is held to have taught that causal power and self are projections, that God is a projection of our fear, and that value is a projection of sentiment. By considering what it is about Hume's writing that occasions this metaphor, P. J. E. Kail spells out its meaning, the role it plays in Hume's work, and examines how, if at all, what sounds 'projective' in Hume can be reconciled with what sounds 'realist'. In addition to offering some highly original readings of Hume's central ideas, Projection and Realism in Hume's Philosophy offers a detailed examination of the notion of projection and the problems it faces.
Download or read book Elements of Descriptive Geometry written by Otis Everett Randall and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Descriptive Geometry: With Applications to Isometric Projection and Other Forms of One-Plane Projection The aim of this treatise is to make a clear presentation of the theory of projection, to show the application of this theory as a medium of expression, and by the discussion and proof of a great variety of problems to enable the student to make a ready and intelligent use of this medium in the representation of all forms of magnitudes. As by far the greater part of practical drafting is done from the standpoint of the third quadrant, there seems to be no good reason why the principles of descriptive geometry, which are so directly and extensively applied in practice, should not also be presented from the standpoint of the same quadrant. Therefore, while the student is called upon to work freely in all the four quadrants, the subject-matter is presented primarily from the third quadrant. In the establishment of principles great effort is made to be explicit; but in the application of these principles, for which purpose a great many unsolved problems are assigned, the student is left largely to his own resources. As the principles of projection are fundamental in all branches of drafting, it follows that no attempt at extensive application of these principles in such subjects as machine drawing, gearing, architectural drawing, etc., should be made until the principles themselves have been thoroughly established. For this reason the attention of this work is largely confined to theoretical considerations, although a number of simple practical applications such as the student can safely and intelligently make are introduced.
