Abstract
THIS is a translation of the excellent booklet on the electromagnetic theory of light published by Dr. Silberstein in English a few years back and then noticed in NATURE (November 21, 1918, p. 225). It is derived ultimately from the author's Polish treatise on electricity and magnetism. The translator has added notes in explanation of some of the mathematical arguments and of the vectorial notation adopted by the author. Some appendices are omitted, but a special note has been added by the author on Poynting's vector.
