Book Description
Excerpt from Catalogue of the Mechanical Engineering Collection in the Science Division of the Victoria and Albert Museum, South Kensington, Vol. 1 It is not the object of the Collection to attempt to indicate the present-state of the arts in any particular branch of engineer ing. Its aim is rather to illustrate broadly the steps by which advances have been made up to the present day to Show students and others at the same time the general principles which underlie all its branches, and to offer to the engineer suggestions or ideas from other branches of his profession that may prove fruitful in the work upon which he may be engaged.
