Abstract
THIS book is addressed chiefly to the architects, managers and caretakers of buildings, and its opening chapter deals with the physical principles bearing on ventilation. An interesting account is given of the author's observations on alternating air currents and their effects. Some passages are, however, very obscure, as, for instance, when one reads of “the electrical conditions due to the sudden expansion of the air.”
