Relation of Heat to Chemistry—But while we thus condemn the attempts to
explain the thermotical phenomena of chemical processes by means of chemical
considerations, it may be asked if we are altogether to renounce the hope of ...

We may add, that while our thermotical theory is still so imperfect as it is, all
attempts to divine the true nature of the relation between light and heat are
premature, and must be in the highest degree insecure and visionary.
