Note 9 — III EINSTEIN

Of the non-mathematical articles which have appeared, those by Prof. A. S. Eddington (Nature, volume 101, pages 15 and 34, 1918) and Prof. M. R. Cohen (The New Republic, Jan. 21, 1920) are the best which have come to the author’s notice. Other articles on Einstein’s theory, some easily comprehensible, others somewhat confusing, and still others full of noise and rather empty, are by H. A. Lorentz, The New York Times, Dec. 21, 1919 (since reprinted in book form by Brentano’s, New York, 1920); J. Q. Stewart, Scientific American, Jan. 3, 1920; E. Cunningham, Nature, volume 104, pages 354 and 374, 1919; F. H. Loring, Chemical News, volume 112, pages 226, 236, 248, and 260, 1915; E. B. Wilson, Scientific Monthly, volume 10, page 217, 1920; J. S. Ames, Science, volume 51, page 253, 19209; L. A. Bauer, Science, volume 51, page 301 (1920), and volume 51, page 581 (1920); Sir Oliver Lodge, Scientific Monthly, volume 10, page 378, 1920; E. E. Slosson, Independent, Nov. 29, Dec. 13, Dec. 20, Dec. 27, 1919 (since collected and published in book form by Harcourt, Brace and Howe); Isabel M. Lewis, Electrical Experimenter, Jan., 1920; A. J. Lotka, Harper’s Magazine, March, 1920, page 477; and R. D. Carmichael, New York Times, March 28, 1920. Einstein himself is responsible for a brief article in English which first appeared in the London Times, and was later reprinted in Science, volume 51, page 8, 1920 (see the Appendix).
