The derivation of the word seems to indicate some connexion in men's minds with the idea of Fire: the other three "elements," Earth, Water, Air, representing the solid, liquid, and gaseous conditions of ordinary matter respectively. The name Æther suggests a far more subtle or penetrating and ultra-material kind of substance. Newton employs the term for the medium which fills space-not only space which appears to be empty, but space also which appears to be full; for the luminiferous ether must undoubtedly penetrate between the atoms-must exist in the pores so to speak-of every transparent substance, else light could not travel through it. The following is an extract from Newton's surmises concerning this medium: - "Qu. 18.

Lodge argues that the ether is a real and necessary component of the universe, and that its existence is supported by scientific evidence.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a historical overview of the concept of the ether, tracing its development from ancient Greek philosophy to modern physics. Lodge discusses the work of scientists such as Isaac Newton, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein, and shows how their theories have shaped our understanding of the ether.The second part of the book delves deeper into the nature of the ether, exploring its properties and how it interacts with matter. Lodge argues that the ether is not simply an empty space, but a dynamic substance that can be affected by physical forces. He also discusses the role of the ether in phenomena such as light, electricity, and magnetism, and shows how it provides a framework for understanding these phenomena.Overall, Ether and Reality is a thought-provoking exploration of a concept that has fascinated scientists and philosophers for centuries.
