First edition.

Louis Bertrand Castel (1688-1757) was a Jesuit, mathematician, physicist and French journalist.
This book is one of the first scientific treatises published by this author. He explains his theory according to which all the phenomena of the universe are explicable according to two principles, which are: the gravity of the bodies, which makes everything tend to rest, and the activity of the spirits, which incessantly creates the movement.
In France, he was one of the main opponents of Newton's theory of gravitation.

- Ueber sehr schnelle electrische Schwingungen.
- Nachtrag zu der Abhandlung über shr schnelle electrische Schwingungen.
- Ueber einen Einfluss des ultravioletten Lichtes auf die electrische Entladung.

In the same volume we find, two articles by Boltzman :
