restrict the book to a few, while the latter would deprive it of all real
value."

Prévost's first paper enunciates the theory of exchanges, which the selec-
tions from his treatise on radiant heat extend and explain. Stewart's
papers extend the theory and establish a qualitative, or selective, rela-
tion. The first rigorous proof of the law of the emission and radia-
tion of heat and light is due to Kirchhoff, its application to spectrum
analysis to Kirchhoff and Bunsen.

Carnot's memoir established the conditions upon which the economical
working of all heat-engines is dependent. Clausius' paper gives the
first formulation of the second law of thermodynamics, which he
laid down for use in proving Carnot's proposition. Lord Kelvin's
article, on the same subject and published shortly afterwards, gives
an independent formulation of the law, and a rigorous proof.
