Abstract

THE triple alliance of astronomy, physics and chemistry has extended the boundaries of each in unexpected directions. Astronomy is no longer a dependency of mathematics, but an independent power having a high place in the hierarchy of the physical sciences; instruments of research in physics have been turned from earth to sky, and chemistry now looks to the stars for evidence as to the distribution and ultimate structure of the elements.

Problems in Astrophysics.

By Agnes M. Clerke Pp. xvi + 567. (London: A. and C. Black, 1903.) Price 20s. net.
