  <dc:title>Letter from Vito Volterra, Via in Lucina 17, Rome, to Sir Joseph Larmor, Cambridge</dc:title>
  <dc:description>On his return to Rome, he found James Clerk Maxwell's book 'Matter and Motion', sent by Larmor and he gives thanks for this and Larmor's notes. He has found a copy of [Adolfo] Bartoli's paper on motion produced by light and heat, in the second part of which is a demonstration of the pressure of light. This was privately published, rather than in a scientific journal, and few scholars have read the original. He would be happy to send this to Larmor as a friendly token of their time together at Strasbourg.
