Summary "A Book of Exposition" by Homer Heath Nugent is a scientific publication edited in the early 20th century. This collection aims to showcase a variety of modern essays that serve as models for teaching exposition in different fields, such as anatomy, manufacturing, and natural processes, while also introducing readers to key concepts and tendrils of science. The opening of the text presents a preface and an introduction outlining the aim of the book. The editor acknowledges those who assisted in the creation of this collection, including his wife and a colleague. The introduction emphasizes that the selected articles are not only pedagogical tools but also valuable in themselves, spanning topics from human anatomy and industrial machinery to philosophical ideas. This arrangement is intended to capture the interconnectedness of various fields of knowledge and assist instructors in conveying complex ideas to students, setting the tone for a diverse exploration of exposition that lies ahead in the subsequent chapters.
