Abstract
WITHIN recent years pyrometry has become VV an essential factor in a large number of industrial operations where high temperatures are involved; particularly is this the case in the metallurgy of steel, where success or failure often entirely depends on correct adjustment of the temperature within narrow limits. Mr. Darling's excellent series of Cantor lectures were therefore very welcome, and no less welcome and of wider service will this small volume, the outcome of these lectures, prove.
Pyrometry: a Practical Treatise on the Measurement of High Temperatures.
By Chas. R. Darling. Pp. xii + 200. (London: E. and F. N. Spon, Ltd.; New York: Spon and Chamberlain, 1911.) Price 5s. net.
