A, Tilden, F.R.S., D.Sc., LL.D., etc. Illustrated Sir William Tilden stands firmly on the earth of our present physical know- ledge, and tells us how far from such a standpoint science can see into ' un- original night and chaos old.' With modern theories of matter and elec- tricity, and their astounding suggestive- ness, it is easy to dream about the primal condensation of ' protyle' into atoms, and anyone who wishes to do so will find plenty of hints in Sir William's clear concise chapters; he limits his speculations, however, to the probable, and refuses the offers of imagination to carry him into the merely possible.
