Abstract
THIS handsome book with its large pages, clear type, and numerous illustrations, has a very attractive appearance. It forms the first volume of the important ‘Handbook’ of experimental physics now in course of publication in Leipzig. The editors state that it appeared desirable to place in the forefront of their work a summary account of physical measurements and the technique of experimentation. It would be unfair to criticise the scope of the work in the absence of the later volumes, as it forms only the first part of a complete whole.
