Abstract
THIS comprehensive Polish work on the physics (and incidentally much geology) of the globe, the sea and the atmosphere is a noteworthy publication and does credit to its author and his nation. It opens with a brief history of astronomy with reference to the earth and its relation to the sun, moon and planets. This is followed by a sketch of the geological epochs and such physical and chemical considerations as the magnetism and composition of the interior of the earth.
