8vo. Pages 421-448; 543-544; 983-1000. [Entire volume: viii, 1048 pp.] Figs. 23-29 on plate III; figs. 8-11 on plate VII. Quarter cloth, cloth corners, marbled boards, gilt spine; spine ends frayed, corners bumped. Ex library ms. paper spine label, rubber stamps. Very good. FIRST EDITION. HERTZ WAS THE FIRST TO DEMONSTRATE EXPERIMENTALLY THAT ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES RADIATE IN SPACE AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT, just as Maxwell had predicted in his Treatise on electricity and magnetism. Hertz determined that electromagnetic waves were longer than light waves and showed that they were in complete corre...

Ex library ms. spine number, blind-stamp of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, Mount Wilson Observatory. Very good. FIRST EDITION of a paper that originally appeared in the Oversigt over det K. Danske Vidensh. Selsk. Forhandlung, No. 1, 1867. "Most impressive of all Lorenz' achievements in optics is his electromagnetic theory of light, developed in a relatively unknown paper of 1867, two years after Maxwell's famous paper on the same subject. At that time Lorenz did not know Maxwell's theory,...
