Abstract
THIS book contains the substance of a course of lectures delivered by Dr. Shaw at Cambridge in 1903. The author's reputation as a physicist will naturally lead those who open these pages to expect a scholarly treatment of the subject, and they will not be disappointed; and although we are told in the preface that “this volume is in a sense my last will and testament on the subject of ventilation,” we venture, after a careful perusal of the book, to express a hope that Dr. Shaw may find time to extend so judicious and original a treatment of this difficult branch of applied science.
Air Currents and the Laws of ventilation.
