An interesting read, although a bit dated wrt the discussion of the senses. I was reading this primarily to look for evidence of Mach's principle, and yes, I found a few statements unmentioned in wiki where Mach tries to assert a relativity of all Geometry... I guess it might not be referring to rotation, but it can easily be seen as a book that may have been planting the seeds in Einstein's head.
