Abstract
GANOT'S Treatise on Physics has been translated into Italian and is no doubt largely used in the country; also in 1870 Prof. Cantoni, of Milan, published a course of Physical Lectures. The work before us by Prof. Dal Pozzo is to some extent based upon that of Cantoni; it is a summary of two courses of lectures delivered in the free University of Perugia. The University (founded in 1307) is one of the oldest in Europe, and possesses a good library, botanical gardens, and mineralogical collections. We cannot at this moment call to mind any scientific associations connected with the place, as with Pisa, Bologna, and Pavia. The town itself has been mentioned any time for two and twenty centuries, and it is a noted school of music.
