Abstract
THE present book was written to appear as the first of six volumes of a handbook on Radiology, to be published in German under the editorship of Prof. Erich Marx. The translation of Rutherford's “Radio-active Substances and their Radiations” appeared nearly two years ago as the second volume of the series. The other volumes in preparation deal with kathode rays, X-rays, photoelectric effects, and the theory of electrons and X-rays. It was intended that the last two subjects should be treated by a number of well-known physicists, including Profs. H. A. Lorentz, P. Zeemann, Langevin, Einstein, Riecke and Sommerfeld. No doubt the publication of the later volumes has been delayed by the outbreak of war.
