Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the PREFACE. I AM laying before the public a treatise upon a subject, perhaps, as extraordinary in its nature as anything that has lately come before them; and after a candid perusal, should it meet with approbation from the friends to arts and sciences, my utmost pride will be gratified. The flight of birds, although so common and familiar to our sight, is certainly as great a phenomenon as any in the creation; and artificial flying, when accomplished, may be considered as one of the greatest wonders of the mechanic arts; which I firmly believe attainable upon the plan I have suggested. In this little work, I have shewn that birds wings do not increase their expansion in exact ratio with the increased specific gravity of their bodies; I have given a demonstration of the cause of the projectile motion of birds, the discovery of a true knowledge of which has bid defiance to philosophers in all ages; which, with other discoveries, I trust will prove that I have given consistency to what henceforth may he denominated the science of flying, and which may alone be deemed of considerable importance to science, had nothing more than that been brought forward; but as I have gone much further, and have advanced arguments, and given plans to render the art of flying practicable, the importance of this little treatise becomes obvious, more particularly so if we take into consideration the various purposes to which artificial flying may be applied. When my work was just ready for the press, I was much surprised at the account a friend gave me of what he had seen that day upon flying, in a monthly journal. I immediately procured a sight of it, and found it to be an ingenious paper, written by Sir George Cayley; and I own I was astonished at the perusal. I conceived it to be very extraordinary that two persons, not having the least knowledge of each other, should be publishing their thoughts at the same time, upon such a subject; nor was I less surprised to find the subject treated of there, in a manner so rational, and far superior to anything I had ever seen before. From what Sir George has thought, and the calculations he has made upon the subject, he is so genuine in his belief, that flying will be effected, as to say, in one part of his paper, as follows: "I "feel perfectly confident, however, that this "noble art will soon be brought home to man's "general convenience, and that we shall be able "to transport ourselves and families, and their "goods and chattels, more securely by air than "by water, and with a velocity of from 20 to 100 "miles per hour."-Vide Nicholson's Journal for November 1809. For my own part, whatever reason I may have to be sanguine of success, I have made a resolution to suppress in my work, every thought that confidence could suggest, beyond what I could give demonstration of, along with the clearest directions how to attain the end in view; thereby putting it out of the power of critics to say that the principles of my theory have not a good foundation. Notwithstanding, from the novelty and singularity of the subject, I do expect to meet with a good deal of raillery and sarcasm; the wits will tell me that I am flighty, and the more serious and heavy part of mankind, who are too ponderous for such aerial flights, will express a disapprobation of my scheme....
Download or read book Survival of the Beautiful written by David Rothenberg and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The peacock's tail makes me sick!' said Charles Darwin. That's because the theory of evolution as adaptation can't explain why nature is so beautiful. It took the concept of sexual selection for Darwin to explain that, a process that has more to do with aesthetic taste than adaptive fitness. Survival of the Beautiful is a revolutionary new examination of the interplay of beauty, art, and culture in evolution. Taking inspiration from Darwin's observation that animals have a natural aesthetic sense, philosopher and musician David Rothenberg probes why animals, humans included, have an innate appreciation for beauty - and why nature is, indeed, beautiful.
