Abstract
IN his preface to the present edition of this work the author remarks:— “We have given positive proofs of the untenability and the imaginary foundation upon which rest the hypotheses which have for their subject-matter the theory of vibration of a cosmic ether, whether these relate to light, heat, or to the artificial terms under the ægis of ‘the conversion of work into heat, energy into electricity, &c.,’ in short the greater part of the hypotheses which form the foundation and chief support of the privileged sciences of to-day.
