Excerpt from Spectrum Analysis: Six Lectures Delivered in 1868 Before the Society of Apothecaries of London

In preparing this wholly revised and almost entirely rewritten Edition of the Lectures on Spectrum Analysis no effort has been spared to give a popular and concise account of the most important discoveries in this branch of science which have been made since the year 1873. Care has been taken, in so doing, to select such portions of this wide subject as have already been worked out with approximate completeness. Many questions of rising interest have thus necessarily been omitted as not lending themselves in the present state of our knowledge, to popular treatment. Even whilst these pages have passed through the press several new discoveries have been made.
