For the most part chcmists preferred to use the dircctly determined equiva!cnt wcights of the elcmcnts, rather than the atomie weights which in-volvcd unccrtain estimates as to the combining numbers of the atomt."

13.    Mach did advocate what hc callcd a "universal physical phcnomcnulogy.’’ howcvcr (PSL (La Salle, III., 1943], p. 250)- ^In ‘his book I use "phcnomcnal-ism” as the generał term and confinc ■^,phcnomcnoIog>^," to the philosophy of Edmund I lusscrl and his associatcs and followcrs.

In rcply to this, I must obscrvc that for mc also the world is not a merę sum of sensations. Indeed, I speak e.\prcsslv of functional relations of the elcmcnts."
