Abstract
THIS is one of the most original books on mathematical physics which has appeared for a long time. Prof. J. J. Thomson has elaborated a method of very wide scope, and has applied it to a large number of problems of very different kinds. A reader of the work must perforce be struck not only with the mathematical ability of the author, but with the wide extent of learning which enables him to illustrate his theme by recent researches in nearly every branch of physics and physical chemistry.
Applications of Dynamics to Physics and Chemistry.
