Lodge, Oliver J. 09013944 The Ether of Space Produced by Barbara Tozier, Mark Young, Bill Tozier and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Ether of Space" by Sir Oliver Lodge is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The work explores the concept of the ether as a medium essential for the propagation of light and other phenomena. Lodge delves into various aspects of physics related to this medium, illustrating its vital role in the structure of the universe and in the behavior of light. The opening of the book introduces the author's fascination with the ether of space, positing it as a fundamental yet often overlooked aspect of physics. Lodge references historical figures like Newton and Maxwell to emphasize the ether's interconnectedness with light, electricity, and magnetism. He outlines his intent to make his conclusions accessible to a wider audience, suggesting that the ether is not only a theoretical construct but a reality that pervades the universe. The introduction sets the stage for a detailed examination of the ether's properties, including its elasticity and inertia, and how these characteristics enable it to support wave phenomena like light.
