Abstract
DEN HARTOG'S book combines mathematical simplicity with a rare insight into the physical nature of vibrations, and its author has a happy knack of explaining things in a way that the less gifted can understand. For these reasons, and for the wealth of information it contains, the book has long been a standard work in Great Britain as well as in the United States.
