Thanks WW for sending Richard Jones's new book and comments on it. Comments on WW's 'Science of the English Universities' and WW's review of Charles Lyell's Principles of Geology. Has heard that WW is reviewing JH's Prelim. Discourse.
Is sending WW a large collection of writings on optics and light.
Thanks WW for his favorable review of JH's Prelim. Discourse. Vernon Harcourt has asked JH for his views on the establishment of a B.A.A.S. Expresses some support but numerous reservations. Responds favorably to WW's suggestion that prominent scientists prepare surveys of their specialties for the meeting.
