Abstract
TEACHERS of experimental physics will find much that is useful and suggestive in this volume. Though some experiments of an elementary character have been included, the work is intended for advanced students who are working for a pass or honours degree. The bulk and the price of the book might have been reduced materially by the omission of much that is common to many elementary text-books. In some cases full experimental details are given, while in others the description is insufficient to enable an ordinary student to carry out the necessary manipulations. Little attention is given to the degree of accuracy to be expected.
