(Hertz), Heinrich. "The Work of Hertz, by Oliver J. Lodge." London: an article in Nature, 1894. 1st edition. Nature: weekly issue for 7 June 1894. 8vo. Wrappers. This is the original weekly issue, removed from a larger, bound collection (and so with evidence of the removal at the spine). Lodge writes an appreciation and intellectual review of Hertz' work just 6 months after his death. "Heinrich Rudolf Hertz (February 22, 1857 - January 1, 1894) was the German physicist and mechanician for whom the hertz, an SI unit, is named. In 1888, he was the first to satisfactorily demonstrate the existence of electromagnetic waves by building an apparatus to produce and detect UHF radio waves. Another of his important contributions was to the field of contact deformation and mechanics."--Wiki $125
