| Summary | "The Economy of Workshop Manipulation" by John Richards is a technical guide written in the late 19th century. This publication aims to provide a logical framework for learning constructive mechanics, primarily targeting apprentice engineers and students. It discusses the intricacies of workshop processes and the principles behind machine operation, emphasizing the importance of understanding both theoretical knowledge and practical skills. The opening of this work sets the stage by explaining the author's motivation for creating this guide. Richards highlights the gap in existing educational resources for apprentice engineers, particularly in the realm of practical knowledge and workshop manipulation. He stresses that while theoretical principles are crucial, they must be coupled with experiential learning to be effectively applied. The introduction lays a foundation for upcoming chapters, which are designed to delve into various mechanical engineering concepts, encouraging a logical approach to skill acquisition and analyzing workshops through an understanding of practical operations.
