Excerpt from A Chapter on Fresnel's Theory of Double Refraction
Mr Griffin's tract on Double Refraction has been for some time quite out of print. The following pages are published with a view to supply the deficiency thus caused. It is hoped that they may serve as a useful companion to the latter part of the Astronomer Royals treatise on the Undulatory Theory of Light.
