The Mean Density of the Earth by J. H. Poynting Pdf

Excerpt from The Mean Density of the Earth: An Essay to Which the Adams Prize Was Adjudged in in the University of Cambridge The subject for the Adams Prize for 1893 was "The Methods of determining the absolute and relative value of gravitation and the mean density of the earth." This Essay, to which the Prize was adjudged, gives an account of the various experiments, including one by the author, which have been made to determine the mean density of the earth. The First Part consists of an introductory discussion of the problem and an account of the experiments hitherto made on the subject. Since the Essay was first written I have had access to some of the original papers, of which I had before only seen abstracts or brief notices, and I have therefore been able to make the history of the subject more complete. The Second Part contains an account of my own experiment which has already appeared in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society for 1891. As it is a condition of the award of the Prize that the Essay should be printed, it is necessary to give here the account of the experiment in full as already published. I have prefixed a bibliography of works and papers containing important or noteworthy contributions to the subject. In this will be found a reference to an experiment by M. Berget, of which the account has been published so recently that it could not be included in the First Part of the Essay.

The Order of Nature an Essay (Classic Reprint) by Lawrence J. Henderson Pdf

Excerpt from The Order of Nature an Essay Many of the characteristics of inorganic nature, like the stability of the solar system and the en during movements oi the waters of the earth, are the very condition of existence for life as We know it and the source of diversity in organic evolution. This is perhaps one of the oldest interpretations of nature. But since Darwin's time the fitness of the environment has only occasionally aroused passing comment without ever entering the main current of scientific thought. And yet, whatever may be the final judgment of natural science upon either organic or inorganic harmonies, biological fitness is manifestly a mutual relationship. For, however present order may have developed out of past con fusion, the organism and the environment each fits and is fitted by the other.
