Excerpt from Laws Governing Its Development: With Suggestions on Education, Relative to the Attainment of Beauty
Mr. Hands, of Hammersmith, author of some very interest ing works, has now adopted the plan originated by Dickens and Thackeray, whose books were brought out in monthly instal ments. Mr. Hands' views are most original, and illustrated by facts; his language stimulates the mental taste, like that of Robert Burton and Dr. Johnson, and pleases whilst instructing the reader. - The Sussex Daily News. - June 18th, 1879.
Mr. Hands has issued the second (july) part of his New Views of Matter, Life, Motion, and Resistance. In many respects, this thoughtful and industrious author has trodden paths which are also explored by Dr Babbitt, in his great work on Light.
