Excerpt from Laws Governing Its Development: With Suggestions on Education, Relative to the Attainment of Beauty

We have been favoured with a perusal of a portion of Mr. Hands' Work on "Matter, &c.," and can speak of it as a most able and interesting contribution to scientific literature. - The Modern Physician. - May, 1879.

Mr. Hands' Essays on Matter, Motion, Life, and Resistance, &c., are replete with instruction and original conceptions of a very striking character.- Human Nature. - June 20th, 1879.

Mr. Hands, of Hammersmith, author of some very interesting works, has now adopted the plan originated by Dickens and Thackeray, whose books were brought out in monthly instalments. Mr. Hands' views are most original, and illustrated by facts; his language stimulates the mental taste, like that of Robert Burton and Dr. Johnson, and pleases whilst instructing the reader. - The Sussex Daily News. - June 18th, 1879.

Mr. Hands has issued the second (July) part of his "New Views of Matter, Life, Motion, and Resistance." In many respects, this thoughtful and industrious author has trodden paths which are also explored by Dr Babbitt, in his great work on "Light."

These writers are pioneers in new fields of scientific research, and, as such, a duty falls to their lot which cannot be attributed to a selfish motive. Mr. Hands is a true author, and gives to his readers profound original thought, at a popular price, his single object apparently being the education of the public mind in all its multitudinous forms. - The and Daybreak. - July 25, 1879.
