Sir James Alfred Ewing (1855-1935) was a Scottish engineer, physicist and cryptographer. First published in 1926, as the fourth edition of an 1894 original, this book was written by Ewing 'to present the subject of heat-engines, in their mechanical as well as their thermodynamical aspects, with sufficient fulness for the ordinary needs of University students of engineering'. The text was extensively revised for this edition, taking into account developments in relation to steam turbines, steam boilers and internal combustion engines. Numerous illustrative figures are also provided. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Ewing's writings, steam engines and the history of engineering.

Excerpt from Thermodynamics of the Steam Engine and Other Heat-Engines This work is designed to give instruction to students in technical schools in the methods and results of the application of thermodynamics to engineering. While it has been consid ered desirable to follow commonly accepted methods, some parts differ from other text-books, either in Substance or in manner of presentation, and may require a few words of explanation. The general theory or formal presentation of thermodynam ics is that employed by the majority of writers, and was pre pared with the view oi presenting clearly the difficulties inher ent in the subject, and of giving familiarity with the processes employed.
