The review discusses the book "Electromagnetic Theory" by Prof. William R. Smythe, which aims to provide a concise summary of fundamental principles of electromagnetic theory and illustrate them with practical applications. The book is praised for its detailed and practical approach, including the use of vector notation, a detailed index, and a comparison of standard systems of units. It also covers topics like the special theory of relativity and wave mechanics, making it an indispensable resource for researchers in electromagnetic theory. The review highlights the publication of the third volume of Dr. Surendranath Dasgupta's "A History of Indian Philosophy," which focuses on the religious philosophy of southern Indian schools, particularly those that are not orthodox. The volume covers various schools such as the Bhaskara school, the Pañcavātrās, the Visistadvaita, and the Ramānuja school. It emphasizes the depth and alertness of Indian thought, addressing problems of knowledge, religious psychology, and moral experience. The review notes that the book's comparative value should encourage European scholars to give more attention to Indian philosophy.The review discusses the book "Electromagnetic Theory" by Prof. William R.
