Abstract
DR. BRESTER'S preliminary account of his new theory of the sun has already been noticed in our columns (NATURE, vol. xxxix. p. 492). The present volume is a communication to the Amsterdam Academy of Sciences, and gives a complete statement of the principles and their application to the various solar phenomena. The author is careful to point out that he has not contributed a single fact of observation himself, but is content to rely on the work of others. Nevertheless, he is evidently a most careful student, and if his theory cannot be accepted, some of its points are well worth the attention of solar physicists.
