Description
Excerpt from Electricity and Matter
In these Lectures given at Yale University in May, 1903, I have attempted to discuss the bear ing of the recent advances made in Electrical Science on our views of the Constitution of Matter and the Nature of Electricity; two questions which are probably so intimately connected, that the solution of the one would supply that of the other. A characteristic feature of recent Electri cal Researches, such as the study and discovery of Cathode and Rontgen Rays and Radioactive Substances, has been the very especial degree in which they have involved the relation between Matter and Electricity.
