Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents the discussion of optical phenomena through a corpuscular theory of light, a field of study that has been largely abandoned in favor of wave theory. The work is divided into two parts, each covering a specific aspect of light's behavior and properties. Part II focuses on the reflection and refraction of light. The author, while acknowledging the abandonment of a corpuscular theory in favor of a wave theory, suggests that optical phenomena can be better understood through a corpuscular approach. By viewing light as a stream of minute particles traveling in sheets, several phenomena, such as the polarization of light upon reflection from transparent surfaces, can be more accurately explained. The book's insights on light's behavior will be of interest to physicists, historians of science, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the nature of light.
