(1) Electrical Measuring Instruments (2) Electrical Vibration Instruments: an Elementary Text-book on the Behaviour and Tests of Telephone Receivers, Oscillographs, and Vibration Galvanometers

Abstract

(1) IN the preface to their book on “Electrical X Measuring Instruments,” the authors state that “some apology would seem to be necessary for issuing yet another book on electrical instruments.” It is true that a certain number of books of varying merit have appeared within the last few years, but the authors need be under no apprehension as to the need for the book which they have just published.
