Abstract

(1) IN 1887 the Göttingen Faculty of Philosophy offered a prize for the best essay, historical and critical, on the physical concept of energy, and the principle of conservation of energy. The prize was awarded to Dr. Max Planck, and his essay now, in its second edition, finds a fitting place in the series which the Teubner Press are issuing bearing the title of the first volume by Poincaré, “Science and Hypothesis.”
