The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.Medical theory and practice of the 1700s developed rapidly, as is evidenced by the extensive collection, which includes descriptions of diseases, their conditions, and treatments. Books on science and technology, agriculture, military technology, natural philosophy, even cookbooks, are all contained here.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Excerpt from Steel Rails: Their History, Properties, Strength and Manufacture, With Notes on the Principles of Rolling Stock and Track DesignIN this work the author has endeavored to systematize the knowledge in existence upon the subject, and to present in a concise yet clear form the most important features of the problem.The first chapter treats of the development of the present design of section with a comparison of the American rails with those in use on English Railways and on the Continent.In chapters two to five, inclusive, the external forces acting on the rail and the corresponding stresses they produce in the rail are discussed. The necessity and desire for information on this subject are widespread. While a considerable amount of general information is to be found scattered through the technical press and in the proceedings of the various Railway Associations and Engineering Societies, yet very little has been published dealing broadly with the principles of design of the rail in reference to the rolling stock and track structure.In recent years much thought has been given to the manufacture of rail steel, and investigators, it would seem, have turned their attention more to an examination of the various defects found in the process of manufacture than to the study of the duty of the rail.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
