14. An English translation of the above paper is reproduced in Debye's "Collected Papers": OX BOW Press, Woodbridge, Conn (1954). His description of his model follows: "The interior of dielectrics contains not only elastically bound electrons but also permanent dipoles of constant electric moment". It is fair to characterize Debye's approach as of a "Master of minimal models"
