Sinopsis

Excerpt from Light: Its Nature, Sources, Effects, and Applications

The discoveries Of Photographic science 'have communicated to the general subject of which this work treats a new interest and importance. And while the author has by no means intended in his present work to put forth a treatise on photography, - yet it cannot be questioned that this art, of which it treats in sufficient detail for ordinary purposes, gives a fresh value to what was already known about Light. In like manner it might be argued that the discoveries of James Watt, on steam and its applications, added an interest to the subject Of Caloric; and certainly, they directed both the attention of the people and that of philo sophers to the science of heat.
