With bookplate of the Herbert Lister Bowman Library, Laboratory of Mineralogy, University of Oxford. Bowman (1874-1942) was Waynflete Professor of Mineralogy and Crystallography. Also inscribed to 'Herbert Lister Bowman with best love from his Godfather J. Fred. Bowman. Xmas 1892'.. Revised and edited by Sylvanus P. Thompson. Translated from the French by Colman C. Starling and R. Mullineux Walmsley. Attractive chromolithographic frontispiece of the Aurora Borealis and numerous wood engravings, many showing scientific instruments. This work includes chapters on Electric Machines, Electric Meteorology, the Telephone and the Microphone, Electric Motors, Lighting by Electricity, Electricity in Warfare, etc., etc.'The Editor is anxious that this work should be estimated not beyond the pretensions it makes to be a popular, simple, non-mathematical exposition of the science that now excites such general interest. It is intended for the table of the drawing-room rather than for the desk of the student, and must not therefore be judged as though it pretended to be a text-book reference.' (Editor's Preface).

Leopold Voss 1896 xix, 1334, 8 plates (1 col), 254 text figs. . HB. Roy. 8vo, cont. half calf, some wear; front joint split but still firm; rear joint partly split. Good. From an institutional library, with bookplate of the Herbert Lister Bowman Library, Laboratory of Mineralogy, University of Oxford. Bowman (1874-1942) was Waynflete Professor of Mineralogy and Crystallography. Also, with bookplate of James Walker (Christ Church) (1857-1929), demonstrator in the Clarendon Laboratory, Vice-President of the Physical Society.. Text German. Second revised edition. Hermann Ludwig Ferdinand Von Helmholtz (1821-1894) is best known in the fields of physics and electrophysiology. He was also a physician holding posts at a number of prominent medical schools. During his tenure at Heidelberg he wrote this monumental treatise on optics. 'Originally issued in parts between 1856 and 1866, the work provided the first real description of optical physiology including the mechanism of accommodation, the phenomenon of color vision, and the measurement of lens curvature' Heirs of Hippocrates No. 1887.The revisions for this second edition of this important work were first published separately in nine parts (1885 -1895) and published as a single volume in 1896. The revisions were mainly concerned with physical and physiological information, with a few changes on the theory of visual perception. This edition also included over 300 pages of a detailed bibliography on the history of the subject, under 33 topic headings, Uebersicht uber die gesammte physiologische-optische Litteratur bis zum Schlusse des Jahres 1894. This section was not included in the third edition..
