Excerpt from Aggregation and Flow of Solids: Being the Records of an Experimental, Study of the Micro-Structure and Physical Properties of Solids in Various States of Aggregation, 1900-1921 (Classic Reprint)
Twenty years ago the electron theory was in its infancy, and we were almost entirely ignorant of the structure of the atom.

The atom was generally regarded as a minute particle separated from neighbouring atoms by distances which were enormously large in comparison with the dimensions of the atom itself.
