The Metric System of Weights and Measures compared with the Imperial System
The Metric System of Weights and Measures compared with the Imperial System is a scholarly work, published in 1896 in ''Nature''. The main subjects of the publication include mathematics, unit of measurement, metric system, history, mathematical economics, tonne, computer science, subject, and performance indicator. ANYTHING that educates the public in the advantages of the metric system, and exhibits the cumbrous nature of the “weights and measures,” preserved by British insularity to the detriment of British commerce, claims the commendation of men of science.
