Excerpt from Scott-Browne's Text-Book of Phonography, Vol. 2: Unfolds the Laws Governing Mental, Physical and Mathematical Action in Rapid Writing, Gives Full Directions for the Application of the Principles to Reporting, and Defines the Duties of the StenographerWhile the system presented will be of most service to the writer of the Old, or Benn Pitman Phonography, the improvements added, will be found applicable in most cases to the Munson, Isaac Pitman, and other systems. The principles of Analogy, Syllabication, and the Ed tick can be used to advantage as aids to speed and legibility in all systems, and the matters of practise in the directions given, asto how the stenographer shall proceed, take notes, make transcripts, compare copies, phrase, write numerals, gain speed, typewrite, charge for work, and the enumeration of implements and paper to use, having never appeared before, . Will be found invaluable to any and every shorthand Writer of whatever system, be it stenographic or phonographic.It would be folly to hope that the work is perfect or that it could not be improved upon in future editions, by the addition of new mat ter, or the change of methods now used, in some particular or other. Better instruments may he invented to aid the stenographer, but the work as it is has been prepared amid the manifold interruptions incident to business life, and put forth as the best effort of the author in the trying circumstances of laboring under his numerous con¿icting duties. The book is presented for the instruction of the stenographer and the elevation of the profession, with the thanks of the author to the many professional stenographers who hav aided in its preparation by their counsel and advice, or with their pen. Especially is he under obligations to Mr. Edward F. Underhill, for his exhaustive and in structive chapter on Law Reporting.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
