Abstract
THIS short popular account of the optical works in Jena will be of interest to a wide circle of readers. Of the successful application of science to industry no more striking illustration can be found than in the history of the Zeiss firm, with its aim of “scientific exactness and perfection of workmanship,” while to many the description of the present organisation of the undertaking, and the socialistic features of the charter under which it is now controlled, will no less appeal.
Das Zeisswerk und die Carl-Zeiss-Stiftung in Jena.
Ihre wissenschaftliche, technische und soziale Entwickelung und Bedeutung, für weitere Kreise dargestellt von Felix Auerbach (Prof. a.d. Universität). Pp. vi + 124. (Jena: Gustav Fischer, 1903.)
