Text book of heat
This book on the science of heat is intended to fill a place between an elementary text-book and a comprehensive treatise. It has been written to supply a want felt by many teachers and students for a work of moderate size that would represent the best that had been written on the subject by earlier well-known authorities, and at the same time include some account of recent investigations.
