This is the 1893 English translation of the 1888 second German edition of Ernst Mach's historical and philosophical account of mechanics. Discussing the development of statics and dynamics, it was originally written to clarify physical concepts without detailed mathematical discussion, and is best known for its criticism of Newtonian concepts of time and space.
