Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nautical Magazine, &C., 1832 The art of Navigation, like many others, has, in its infancy, been nothing more than the crude result of practical combinations - of experience, which has taught the advantages or inutility of various contrivances - of the knowledge of seafaring, and the constant observation of scientific, men - of the activity and energy of those passions which incite to the performance of great undertakings and of casualty, which full often lays Open to the consideration of man, things which had been concealed in obscurity. All these causes combined, have amplified and converted navigation into one vast science, the very essence of which is philosophy, and which, in its most comprehensive form, embraces the sciences of Meteorology, Astronomy, Geography, and Hydrography. Such is the energetic and concise definition which a modern author* has given of Navigation. From the earliest stage of this art, its progress, and enlargement by Mathematics, Astronomy, Optics, and Physics, we might be induced to look with indifference on the works of its first authors, and to consider them as rude and uninformed, if reason and justice did not convince us, that the whole magnificent fabric of naviga tion, which in the present day fills us with surprise, and com mands our veneration, is founded upon them; and that, considering the state of science during the sixteenth century, the authors who first reduced this art to one concise system, have more claims on our admiration than all the improvements which it has received in the present day, from the application of new theories and sublime mathematical truths.

Download or read book The Nautical Magazine for 1875 written by Various and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-29 with total page 1077 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nautical Magazine first appeared in 1832, and was published monthly well into the twenty-first century. It covers a wide range of subjects, including navigation, meteorology, technology and safety. An important resource for maritime historians, it also includes reports on military and scientific expeditions and on current affairs. The 1875 volume is again dominated by reports on the Merchant Shipping Bill and debates on seaworthiness, with the editor continuing to prefer 'personal responsibility' to 'Plimsolecisms' and 'grandmotherly supervision' by the government. Serials focus on the economies of the British colonies, Atlantic shipping lines and emigration to South America, but fiction no longer features. Other topics include the opening of the Royal Naval Museum at Greenwich, innovations such as steel hawsers and desalination apparatus for producing drinking water, a proposal for generating power from wave action, and suggestions for using rats as a tasty and economical food source.
