This article focuses on various books. In the book "Atoms and Rays," by Oliver Lodge, the writer speaks for the ether and ingeniously tries to give it a place in the newer scheme of things. In the book "The ABC of Atoms," by Bertrand Russell, the writer omits all mathematics and most details but gives a lucid picture of the trend of thought in the subject of atoms. In the book "Chemistry and Atomic Structure," by J.D. Main Smith, the writer has rewritten theoretical chemistry front the point of view of today's atomic structure, and has examined the old theories critically in this light.
