Abstract

IT is surprising that there are so few books inEnglish which deal with photoelectric phenomena. Hughes and Du Bridge's book, which made a welcome appearance three years ago, deals mainly with those aspects which are of special importance to physicists, and the only other book which has appeared recently concerning this or related subjects is Reimann's “Thermionic Emission”. Dr. de Boer is therefore to be congratulated on giving us another account of this interesting subject from a novel point of view.
