Abstract
M. SIDERSKY has already contributed a volume on polarisation and saccharimetry to the Aide-Mémoire series in which the present book appears. The constants herein described are dealt with in a similar manner; they include density, change of state, viscosity, capillarity, indices of refraction, calorimetry, and photometry. For each of these constants, the author briefly describes the most exact and convenient methods of determining them, and gives in tabular form the results of observations made on various substances. In the descriptions of methods of experimentation, preference is given to those which are actually used in practice outside the physical laboratory, so the book will be a real aid in technical work. Physicists and physical chemists will find the volume a handy epitome of methods and results.
