Abstract
DR. JEFFREYS and I do not always agree ; but I want to support him against H. D., who misses the point1. If in the days of the ‘old’ physics, there was in existence a philosophy applicable to the ‘new’, that is evidence that there is not nearly as much difference between the old and the new as Jeans, Eddington and their followers pretend. That is what Dr. Jeffreys and I maintain ; the argument is unaffected by the number of people who held the ‘philosophy’.
