Abstract
IN this work the earlier writings of Maxwell on electrical subjects, as well as his “Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism,” are discussed. The general attitude is somewhat severe, as may be inferred from the following extract translated from the preface:—
Les Théories électriques de J. Clerk Maxwell. Étude historique et critique.
Par M. P. Duhem. Pp. 228. (Paris: A. Hermann, 1902.) Price fr 8.
