Books by W.E.K. Middleton

In 1760 the first edition of the Traite d'optique sur la gradation de la lumiere of Pierre Bouguer was published posthumously. Dr. Middleton's translation is accompanied by explanatory notes and a biographical and critical introduction.

"This is the first general textbook on the subject in English for more than half a century .... While the book is indispensable for reference for the practising meterorologist, the needs of the student are met by an adequate presentation of theoretical topics."
