Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physics, Vol. 1 of 2: Or Natural Philosophy, General and Medical, Explained Independently of Technical Mathematics, and Containing New Disquisitions and Practical Suggestions Astronomy, which is the instance chosen above, is only one of innumerable subjects, which, when imperfectly understood, appear obscure and difficult, but when more fully investigated, become simplicity itself. As an exam ple from the studies of medical men may be mentioned the question of the movement of the blood in the veins, which has lately been discussed in medical societies and reviews with considerable earnestness. In this question, the appeal is necessarily made to the laws of Natural Philosophy, which govern the phenomenon; but because the study of these has been little cultivated by the facul ty, more time has been absorbed in futile disputation and experiment than would have sufficed for acquiring a competent knowledge of the whole body of Physics now the single section of Physics, which bears on the point if understood in a moderate degree, would have caused all the difficulties at once to vanish. The circu lation of the blood, again, is but one of numerous and scarcely less important subjects in the medical art to which Natural Philosophy is the easy and only key.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physics, or Natural Philosophy, General and Medical, Vol. 2 of 2: Explained Independently of Technical Mathematics; Part I A majority of philosophers now incline to the Opinion here sketched, that there is at least one such subtile uid or ether occupying completely the space of the 'universe, and tend-l ing to uniform diffusion by reason of a strong mutual repulsion of its particles, which uid pervades denser material substances somewhat as water pervades a sponge or a mass of sand, being attracted in a peculiar way by each substance, and which uid may or may not have weight and inertia. They believe far ther that the phenomena above alluded to, and which human art can exhibit with highest beauty, or with awfui intensity, are produced by the motion of other affections of that uid, as the sensation of sound in all its varieties is produced in the delicate structure of the ear by a certain motion in the air, or in any other body, having communication with the ear; or as the sensation ofjar is perceived by a hand held to one end of a log of wood when a blow is given to the other end. Some philosophers again suppose that the causes of the phenomena are material particles projected through space, somewhat as sand might be scattered by an explosion, and which particles are pre sent only when the e ects are apparent. Some combine these two hypotheses. And some hold all the phenomena of heat to be mere motions in the common matter of the bodies in which the heat exists.

Is the etherial power which affects all our senses, and which produces the most varied results in its inﬂuence on all bodies whatever it is diffused thoughout the globe, and resides in all terrestrial substances. As yet, it has not been ascertained whether its presence is confined to our planet, or whether it exists thoughout the universe. Its presence is generally not perceptible in bodies, which are then said to be in a state of electrical quiescence. It is not, how ever, to be considered as certain, that electricity in this condition exerts absolutely no inﬂuence at all.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physical Manipulation, Vol. 2 Since the publication of the first Volume of this work, its scope has been greatly enlarged. It is now made to include, not only Physics proper, but several kindred. Branches, and aims to describe the principal methods of experiment with which every physicist should be familiar. As in the first volume, each Experiment is divided into two parts, a description of the Apparatus, intended mainly for the instructor, and the details of the Experiment, for the student. The subject of Electricity is perhaps better adapted than any other to the laboratory system, and a large amount of space is therefore devoted to it. Heat follows, not being introduced earlier on account of its difficulty, The student may thus first acquire the requisite skill, arid this subject then furnishes an excellent test of his proficiency. To attain accurate results, not only is great care needed, but very carefully constructed apparatus, and numer ous precautions must be taken, and corrections applied. It was therefore deemed better to select simple and inexpensive forms of apparatus which should show the student the principles involved, although not capable of giving very accurate results. If the latter are desired, the student should be referred at once to the original memoirs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physics, Vol. 2 In presenting to the English reader the Second Part of "Peschel's Elements of Physics," I may observe that it was with feelings of considerable satisfaction I received an intimation from my publishers that the sale of Part I. was so encouraging as to render it desirable that the work should be completed with as little delay as possible. It was gratifying to find that the estimate I had formed of the merits of my author was thus confirmed by the verdict of public opinion. The brief intervals of leisure which professional engagements have allowed me have been faithfully devoted to the preparation of these volumes. I am bound to acknowledge the handsome treatment of the First Volume by the reviewers in general; and to the editors of the Eclectic Review and the Civil Engineer and Architect's Journal my thanks are especially due for their lengthened notices of it. The suggestion offered as to the reduction of all the measures to English standards has been attended to in the present Volumes. The different formulæ which occur in the Chapter on Heat have been adapted to Fahrenheit's scale; those calculated for the centigrade division are likewise retained for the convenience of any students who may have occasion to refer to foreign scientific works.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Physics, Vol. 1 of 2: Or Natural Philosophy, General and Medical, Explained Independently of Technical Mathematics, and Containing New Disquisitions and Practical Suggestions The statement, although paradoxical, is true, that human knowledge, the more it is accumulated and perfected, is also the more easily acquired and recollected. As an instance, we may refer to our present knowledge of the celestial motions. These, to our ancestors, appeared so inexplicable, that to observe and analyze them, some of the most gifted individuals devoted their lives - yet when at last, by the penetrating genius of Newton, they were contemplated through the records of many centuries, they were found all to range themselves under a few simple expressions easily intelligible and easily remembered by an ordinary mind. Thus, now, not only is the confusion of past times, in regard to astronomy, converted into a scene of beautiful simplicity and harmony, but we are able to predict, with certainty, many of the changes which are to happen in time to come.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Course of Lectures on Natural Philosophy and the Mechanical Arts, Vol. 2 of 2 The fir'st part of thisvolume, consisting Of the mathematical elements of natural philosophy, is in part reprinted from the syllabus of the lectures, but considerable additions have been made to it, both of elementary matter and of original investigations. These elements are pterfectly in dependent of every other work introductory to any branch of the ma thematics, and they comprehend all the propositions which are required for forming a' complete series of demonstrations, leading to every case of' importance that occurs-in naturalphilosophy, with the exception of some of the more intricate calculations of astronomy. It was therefore absolutely necessary that they should be expressed in the most concise manner that was possible; yet except a few propositions which have been cursoril y introduced in some of the scholia, no essential step of a demon stration has ever been omitted. The best use, that a Student'could make of these elements, would be to read over each theorem or problem superficially, then to endeavour to form for himself a more particular demonstration, and to compare this again with that which is here given for the exertion of a certain degree of invention is by far the Surest mode of fixing any principle Of science in the mind.
