Abstract
Prof. Bridgman has achieved an international reputation for his researches into the properties of matter under high pressures, so the volume under review is assured of a warm welcome by all who have studied the work which has been so assiduously pursued during the past twenty-five years. Prof. Bridgman is known personally to many on the eastern side of the Atlantic for in 1929 he gave the Guthrie lecture to the Physical Society.
