"The Essentials of Philosophy," (1917); and "The Next Step in Religion,"
(1918), while Professor D.H. Parker is the author of two volumes
entitled "The Self and Nature," (1917), and "The Principles of
AEsthetics," (1920).
The Department of History includes on its Faculty a number of men whose
books have attracted more than a passing attention. Professor C.H. Van
Tyne has written among other books, including several textbooks, "The
Loyalists in the American Revolution," (1902), and "The American
Revolution," (1905); while others to be mentioned are Professor A.L.
Cross, whose "History of England and Greater Britain" appeared in 1914;
Professor U.B. Phillips, "The Life of Robert Toombs," (1913), and
"American Negro Slavery," (1918); and Professor E.R. Turner, "The Negro
in Pennsylvania," (1911), and "Ireland and England, in the Past and at
Present," (1919).
Professor Henry C. Adams has written a number of books on economics and
accounting, particularly "American Railway Accounting," (1918). It is
worthy of note that he spent two years in China installing a system of
railway accounting for the Chinese government. Other volumes which
should be noted are: "Social Problems," (1918), by Professor Charles H.
Cooley; "Characteristics of Existing Glaciers," (1911), and "Earth
Features and their Meaning," (1912), by Professor William H. Hobbs;
"The Hindu-Arabic Numerals," (1911), by Professor L.C. Karpinski, and
the "Catalogue of the Stearns Collection of Musical Instruments,"
(1919), prepared by Professor A.A. Stanley.
By far the greater portion of the publications of the Medical Faculty
take the form of monographs, articles, and reports in the various
monographic series and medical publications--Dr. Vaughan lists 73 such
items in the years between 1909 and 1918. In the Law School several
books on different subjects have been issued by members of the present
Faculty including Professors R.W. Aigler, Evans Holbrook, E.N. Durfee,
E.C. Goddard, and E.R. Sunderland. Particularly to be noted is "The
History of Contract in Early English Equity," (1914), by the late
Professor Willard T. Barbour.
Most of the books issued by the members of the Engineering Faculty have
been primarily textbooks, though many of them have been based upon
extended investigations in the subjects presented. Two volumes by
Professor Fiske Kimball, formerly of the Department of Architecture,
"Thomas Jefferson, Architect," (1916), and a "Hi
