Beginning with the philosophic and physiological speculation arising from early experiments on light and color perception, he proceeds to a thorough examination of the history of diopterics, including the roles of Huyghens, Galileo, Descartes, the Bernoullis, Kepler, and other scientists.Full descriptions of hundreds of experiments and detailed treatments of theory cover Newton's work with color and dispersion, his concept of 410 0$aDover Books on Physics 517 $aPrinciples of Physical Optics 606 $aPhysical optics 606 $aPhysics$2HILCC 606 $aPhysical Sciences & Mathematics$2HILCC 606 $aLight & Optics$2HILCC 615 0$aPhysical optics. 615 7$aPhysics 615 7$aPhysical Sciences & Mathematics 615 7$aLight & Optics 676 $a535 700 $aMach$b Ernst$08504 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911004767703321 996 $aThe Principles of Physical Optics$94391018 997 $aUNINA
