<p>As outspoken in his day as Richard Dawkins or Christopher Hitchens are today, American freethinker and author ROBERT GREEN INGERSOLL (1833-1899) was a notorious radical whose uncompromising views on religion and slavery (they were bad, in his opinion), women's suffrage (a good idea, he believed), and other contentious matters of his era made him a wildly popular orator and critic of 19th-century American culture and public life. As a speaker dedicated to expanding intellectual horizons and celebrating the value of skepticism, Ingersoll spoke frequently on such topics as atheism, freedom from the pressures of conformity, and the lives of philosophers who espoused such concepts. This collection of his most famous speeches includes the lectures: [ "The Gods" (1872) [ "Humboldt" (1869) [ "Thomas Paine" (1870) [ "Individuality" (1873) [ "Heretics and Heresies" (1874)</p>

PREFACE. Often while plotting the adiabatic curve on an indicator card taken from an ammonia compressor, I have wished to shorten the time required and simplify the process. This led to working out the constants in Table No. l. Having these constants, Table No. 2 naturally suggested itself to still further simplify the work. In addition to this I have added such other matter as seemed pertinent to a work of this character, hoping to place before the reader all necessary references for one who may have to work up indicator cards taken from an ammonia compressor. If my reader appreciates the value of the adiabatic curve after looking through this work, and learns to use Table No. 2, I feel that my aim will have hit the mark....
