Abstract
IN a passage from my “Introduction to the Theory of Electricity” which you quote in a review of the work in NATURE, vol. xv. p. 526, occurs a very unfortunate misprint of the word of for the word on, which seems to have misled your reviewer, and I therefore beg a few lines to correct it. The passage in question is the statement of Prop. 8, p. 203, which ought to have been written: “In computing the potential on any closed circuit we may substitute for it any closed circuit which is obtained by projecting the given circuit by means of lines of force.”
