---- BEL EXEMPLAIRE ---- FIRST AMERICAN EDITION ---- "From 1928, Jeans occupied himself with the popularization of science... He gave series of radio lectures which served as a source for The Universe Around us (1928)... The red lecture in 1930 led to The Mysterious Universe... Further works followed : The Stars in Their Courses and Through Space and Time, popularizing astronomy and The New background of Science, treating modern physics, all written in Jeans's fluence and exciting style. His final books, Physics and philosophy (1942) and The Growth of Physical Science (1947), were written in a more historical and restrained manner". (DSB VII p. 86)**2820/8320/K4
