The notion dealt with in this volume of proceedings is often traced back to the late 19th-century writings of a rather obscure scientist, C. V. Burton. A probable reason for this is that the painstaking de­ ciphering of this author's paper in the Philosophical Magazine (Vol. 33, pp. 191-204, 1891) seems to reveal a notion that was introduced in math­ ematical form much later, that of local structural rearrangement. This notion obviously takes place on the material manifold of modern con­ tinuum mechanics.
