Abstract
THIS book forms the nineteenth volume of the International Scientific Series. Nearly all the volumes have passed through more than one edition, and with few exceptions the works are of singular merit. They are, moreover, issued at so low a price that they cannot fail to have largely extended an interest in science and given the public a sound acquaintance with the special subjects upon which they treat. In the long list of the forthcoming volumes of the series, we are glad to find that some of the most eminent English and European men of science have consented to take a part.
The Nature of Light, with a General Account of Physical Optics.
By Dr. Eugene Lommel, Professor of Physics in the University of Erlangen. (London: H. S. King and Co., 1875.)
