The Kinetic Theory of Gases: Elementary Treatise With Mathematical Appendices (Classic Reprint)

But I had to omit much, since the work would have demanded too much time. With the present limitation to the old range it has cost very much trouble and very much time to work up the literature of the subject, that has grown mightily in these more than twenty years. The first German edition of this book has already had a large sale in England and A merica. The present English translation will contribute to a still wider dissemination of the book, and will win new friends to the kinetic theory. This I confidently hope, now that by reading the proofs I have seen the loving care with which Mr. Baynes has worked at the translation. By numerous suggestions, too, he has enabled rne to remove some errors and to make corrections and additions. For this I here express to him my warmest thanks.
