Book excerpt: Excerpt from Brown's Elementary Questions and Answers for Marine Engineers HE Publishers and Author have pleasure in bringing before marine engineers this up-to-date work dealing with the Elementary Questions and their Answers as required by the Board of Trade. They do this in the hope that its features of novelty may serve to render candidates for examination more certain of success in this section of their work, and special attention is drawn to the additional or alternative questions written by the Author in an endeavour to show how the older setting may be presented in new form, that in many cases calls for no further explanation or answering, and he has thought such changing would prove acceptable in view of the Regulation coming into force in January, 191 7, which states candidates may receive questions of a similar nature to those embodied in the original It is not intended that these alternative questions be looked upon as ones that will certainly be given, but are only to show what can be done in the process of turning about. Other valuable features of this work are the number of plates of various engine parts, etc., drawn without a confusion of fine details in order to leave the fundamental principles clear, also an extensive alphabetical index, contents, etc., which it is hoped will prove of use to those studying from this book. The Author has refrained from giving elaborate notes upon all the various questions, as his experience has shown that readers prefer to see exactly what shape and approximate size their answer to an individual question should take, and he trusts those using this work will profit by its being written in a manner closely following that so successfully adopted in his Academy. The Author and Publishers acknowledge with grateful thanks the loan of blocks, etc., from the following firms, and without which much valuable information could not have been given - Messrs Weirs, of Cathcart, Glasgow; Parsons Motor Company, Southampton; Brazil, Straker 81 Cc., Bristol; Holmes Cc., newcastle-on-tyne; Hall Cc., Dartford, Kent; Beldam Packing Rubber Company, London.
