Présentation de l'éditeur
Royal Dublin -- Society to provide, each year, for its Members, and for the general public, aC ourse of Popular Lectures on subjects of Scientific interest. I have been invited, from time to time, to take part in carrying out this work; and some of theL ectures I have given in connexion with it are collected in the present Volume. A Lecture is added on the Glaciers of the A lps, which partakes of the same character, but was given on a different occasion. In preparing these Lectures for publication I have not hesitated to avail myself of materials which have come into existence since theL ectures were delivered :my desire being to lay before my readers the latest available information, and to follow out the progress of scientific discovery down to the present date.
