About this book
Robert Hunt, professor of physics at the Metropolitan School of Science, wrote this survey of natural philosophy for general readers; it first appeared in 1848 and this third edition of 1854 takes in discoveries up to the end of 1853. Chapters begin with the general conditions of matter, then move on to motion, gravitation and molecular forces, covering topics such as the earth's motion, the discovery of Neptune and the rings of Saturn. A line from Coleridge on the mystery of existence stands before the preface.
