An Investigation of Terrestrial Refraction is a book written by George Edward King in 1902. The book is a detailed examination of the phenomenon of terrestrial refraction, which refers to the bending of light as it passes through the Earth's atmosphere. King provides a comprehensive overview of the physics of refraction, including the various factors that can affect the degree of bending, such as temperature, pressure, and humidity. He also discusses the practical applications of refraction, such as its impact on the accuracy of astronomical observations and the design of optical instruments. The book includes numerous diagrams and mathematical equations to help readers understand the complex concepts involved in terrestrial refraction. Overall, An Investigation of Terrestrial Refraction is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the science of optics or the workings of the Earth's atmosphere.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
