A. , from notes of lectures delivered by William Thomson. " With the exception of three short introductory paragraphs and four later paragraphs upon Gauss' absolute unit of force and Kater's measure of gravity at Leith Fort, this pamphlet differs in toto from the one published in Edinburgh. It is concerned almost wholly with Statics ; and the treatment is that of the old days before the " return to Newton. " Paragraphs 22 to 70, covering Chapters i and n and half of Chapter in are unrepresented... in " T and T', " and are indeed quite out of sympathy with the whole mode of treatment of the Treatise, giving in familiar fashion the now superseded Duchayla's proof of the parallelogram of forces. In the Edinburgh Sketch the whole thing is disposed of in one paragraph in the true Thomson-and-Tait style. Paragraphs 71 to 124 and 128 and 1 66 (covering Chapters in to vm) in the Glasgow pamphlet are reproduced verbatim in Chapters vi and vn of the Elements of Natural Philosophy as published in 1873, but have no place whatever in the large Treatise.
