Abstract
(1) THESE manuals cover the ground of the London University matriculation syllabus in heat, light, and sound. The treatment is lucid and concise, and thoroughly in accordance with the most recent methods of teaching elementary physics. An outstanding feature of these books is the inclusion of a number of experiments which may be performed with the most simple and inexpensive apparatus, and from which satisfactory results may be obtained.
