Abstract
THIS book may be regarded from three points of view: (1) as a popular account of recent work and experiments; (2) as a scientific examination of the same; and (3) as a historical summary and appreciation of invention in a special branch of science. As an instalment of popular science it has much interest. Readers who, guiltless of any exact science themselves, like to know what is going on in the modern scientific world, will find here a good deal that will help them to understand the significance of such steps in advance as are from time to time reported.
