Abstract
THE author of this book is the director of the lighting research laboratory of a large electrical firm in the United States and is well known as a prolific contributor to the technical literature of his subject. Much of the material in the present volume has appeared in various technical publications ; workers in the field of radiation and its applications will be glad to have the data collected together in a single volume. The scope of the book, the stated object of which is to deal with some major effects of radiant energy, is perhaps sufficiently indicated by the title.
