Physics of the Ether is a book written by Samuel Tolver Preston in 1875. The book is a comprehensive study of the concept of ether, which was a prevalent theory in physics at that time. Ether was believed to be a medium that filled all of space and was responsible for the transmission of electromagnetic waves. Preston's book examines the properties of ether and its relationship with light and electricity. The author also discusses the implications of ether for the understanding of the universe, including the nature of matter, the laws of motion, and the structure of the cosmos. The book is divided into three parts. The first part deals with the historical development of the concept of ether, including the work of luminaries such as Isaac Newton, James Clerk Maxwell, and Michael Faraday. The second part delves into the nature of ether, its properties, and its relationship with light and electricity. The third part discusses the implications of ether for the understanding of the universe.Overall, Physics of the Ether is an important work in the history of physics and provides a fascinating insight into the prevailing theories of the late 19th century. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science or the development of modern physics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
