Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Electrical Theory This volume, nominally a second edition, is really a new book. The great changes in our knowledge of Radiation which have been effected in the last six years by the experiments of Barkla and Bragg and by the theories of Planck and Einstein have made it necessary to treat entirely afresh those portions of the first edition which now form Part II. The Principle of Relativity and Stark's work on atomic structure have altered Part III completely. Part I has been rewritten, not in order that the title of the book might be justified, but in order that the more obvious faults of the first edition might be removed. The new book, unlike the old, has been written to suit the needs of one definite class of students. All mistaken attempts at being 'popular' have been abandoned, and it has been assumed that the reader has an adequate acquaintance with the older physics. The book is addressed to those who, having such an acquaintance, desire to study the more modern developments of the science. Otherwise the purpose of the work is unchanged. Its primary concern is with theories and not with facts; only those facts are described which are essential to the theories discussed and are not described adequately in other text-books with which the reader may be supposed to be familiar.
