"Projection, in the optical sense and in this book, is the production of a picture or image - usually a magnified image - upon some kind of screen or visible plane, vernally by means of a lens. It is manifest that the excellence of the projection - that is, the brightness and distinctness of the picture on the screen - must depend upon many practical conditions, which are to be treated of in these pages..." (Lewis, 1 pp). Lewis, with one two-hundred illustrations, explains and shows the reader diagrams of early electromagnetism theories. Unusual and interesting subject matter.
