Title Thomas Chalmers to William Whewell
Reference 202/25
Covering Dates 04 Mar 1832
Extent and Medium 1 doc
Content and context

Much interested in WW's paper on the form of motion, especially 'the separation you give most of the empirical form'. But has difficulty with the third law; 'as I cannot get quite of the apprehension that it is wholly empirical'. He would like to spend more time on WW's argument on the relationship of external nature to mans 'independent intellectual constitution'. Greatly pleased with the late oration of [Mr Birk]. Thank [Adam] Sedgwick for his recent publication. Surprised at the Edinburgh Review's comments on WW's book [Bridgewater treatise?]. The Quarterly [Review] 'treated me very shabily'.
