Description | Sectional Committee: Physics and Chemistry
Not recommended for publication in the 'Proceedings of the Royal Society of London'. The author has published his speculative theory repeatedly. The author is 'ambitious' to be working in a field of study already covered by 'many able mathematicians...but seems to have paid little attention to the difficulties they have already expounded'.
