" This work is a very welcome addition to our scientific literature, and 

 will be particularly acceptable to those who wish to obtain a popular but 

 at the same time "precise and clear view of what Faraday justly calls the 

 highest law in physical science, the principle of the conservation of force. 

 Sufficient attention has not been paid to the publication of collected mono- 

 graphs or memoirs upon special subjects. Dr. Youmans's work exhibits 

 the value of such collections in a very striking manner, and we earnestly 

 hope his excellent example may be followed in other branches of science."
