Abstract
THIS publication in book form of the series of lectures on coal and its utilisation, delivered recently under the auspices of the Department of Fuel Technology of the University of Sheffield, renders the lectures available to a larger audience than that to which they were originally addressed. Each one is the work of an authority of acknowledged eminence in the particular branch of the subject treated, and, while of course containing nothing absolutely new, presents a clear and accurate picture of the present state of our knowledge brought thoroughly up-to-date. Perhaps the chief cause for regret is that the head of the Department of Fuel Technology, Prof. Wheeler, did not himself contribute to this series of lectures.
