Abstract
FEW physicists will allow to pass without protest some of Prof. Perry's observations appearing in NATURE of November 19, however reluctant they may be to raise a fresh dispute on the evergreen subject to which they refer. So far as one can gather, the Professor has long since adopted one of the many ways in which the fundamental relation of dynamics may be regarded, and works himself up into a stage fury because the majority of modern physicists regard the question in a somewhat simpler and more correct way.
