During the lectures I therefore showed some quite simple qualitative experiments to serve as an introduction to such conceptions as velocity, acceleration, mass, force, intensity of field, and so forth. In my endeavor to find a similar means, adapted to book purposes, the semi-historical method of representation here chosen occurred to me, and I hope I have succeeded in avoiding the uninspiring method of the elementary text books of physics. But it must be emphasized that the historical arrangement has been selected only as a cloak which is to bring into stronger relief the outline of the main theme, the logical relationship. Having once started this process I found myself compelled to continue, and in this way my undertaking increased to the dimensions of this book.
