Abstract
I HAVE seen somewhere (but I am unable to say where) a statement to the effect that there is some evidence for the supposition that in the crystallising state of matter the forces between molecule and molecule are not directed in the right lines joining the molecules. Can any of your readers throw light on this subject, or give references to sources of information about any other case in which the mutual action of two molecules is not directed in the line joining them?
