Abstract
IN his presidential address to the Indian Academy of Science, Sir C. V. Raman surveyed recent progress in the investigation of those phenomena which are observed when radiation is scattered in a crystal (Current Science, January 1941. Supplement). The subject is a natural extension of the well-known Raman effect usually observed in liquids, which has proved such a fruitful source of knowledge concerning molecular vibrations.
