Excerpt from The Electric Circuit The electrostatic circuit is treated in accordance with the modern conception of elastic displacement of electricity in di electrics. No use has been made of the action of electric charges at a distance, or of the electrostatic system of units. The volt ampere-ohm system of units is used for electrostatic calculations.

Excerpt from Theory and Calculation of Electric Circuits In the following volume I have discussed the most important characteristics Of the fundamental conception Of electrical engi neering, such as electric conduction, magnetism, wave shape, the meaning Of reactance and similar terms, the problems Of stability and instability Of electric systems, etc., and also have given a more extended application Of the method Of complex quantities, which the experience Of these twenty years has shown to be the most powerful tool in dealing with alternating current phenomena.

Excerpt from The Electrical Transmission of Energy: A Manual for the Design of Electrical Circuits The methods of distribution are chiefly controlled by the way in which it is considered advisable to arrange the receiving mechanisms. This arrangement of the receivers is indicated by the service which they are called upon to perform, and being involved in the design of the plant in question, must be settled in each particular case for itself.

Excerpt from Electrical Engineering: The Theory and Characteristics of Electrical Circuits and Machinery The second edition contains all the material in the original text but much of it has been rewritten and a great deal of new material added. The more important additions include sections on complex alternating waves and wave analysis, on polyphase alternating current circuits, on the construction of the characteristic curves of direct-current generators and motors, on the design of direct and alternating-current machinery, on the Blondel diagram for the synchronous motor, on the symbolic method of analysis of the induction motor, on alternating-current commutator motors, and finally a chapter on electrical measuring instruments. The chapter on direct-current machinery has been entirely rewritten and much enlarged, and to make it complete a short chapter outlining the design of a direct-current generator has been added. This chapter and the other sections dealing with design are not intended to cover the work required in a course on design but only to give the student some idea of the formulae and constants involved.
