Abstract
WE have already noticed at some length M. Poincaré's works on Électricité et Optique, and given an account of his views regarding Maxwell's theories, and his mode of presenting the subject in the light of Hertz's researches. The present work discusses more particularly the subject of Electric Oscillations, and includes comparatively little of the more abstract treatment of electrical theory to be found in the others. We have in it a very instructive and well-timed résumé of a good deal of the later work on the subject, with mathematical investigations of many points arising in connection with the various experimental researches referred to, which are of great value.
Les Oscillations Électriques.
