Transcriber’s Note
Obvious typos and punctuation errors have been corrected.
Inconsistencies in spelling have been retained.
The book advertisement at the end of the text uses a Unicode character "White Right Pointing Index" (U+261E) for a right pointing hand. If the font in use on the reader's device does not support it, this character, ☞, may not display correctly.
The Index lists an entry "Newton, Sir Isaac, quoted, 5-6." but this quotation does not seem to exist at those pages or anywhere else in the text.
The Index lists an entry "Volk, Leonard W., quoted, 237, 238." but this quotation does not seem to exist at those pages. A reference to Volk is found on pp. 249-250.
Images were moved to fall between paragraphs. If text referenced in the Index shifted page numbers, the Index entry for the original page number links to the new page.
