Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mind, Life, and Motion: With the Law of Their Relations to Matter
WE began this work under the impulse of a tran sient conversation in the Rail Cars, and with no other design than to show the uncertainty of human testimony. This done, it suggested the error of Sir Isaac Newton in deducing a universal law from a centripetal force. In proving this error, we were forced to deny the acknowledged law of science, namely, that matter, or masses of matter, or atoms, or aggregates of atoms, were essentially inert.
