Description

In 1910, E. T. Whittaker wrote "A History of the Theories of Aether and Electricity", which gave a very detailed account of the aether theories from René Descartes to Hendrik Lorentz, and which made Whittaker a respected historian of science. Though the book was a "History", Whittaker showed his own brilliance in his exposition of relativity. (Fully illustrated)
