Abstract
THE appearance of a new edition of Prof. Millikan's well-known book “The Electron” will be welcomed by the many students of physics for whom the previous edition has become a standard text. The new edition differs from its predecessor both in its title and in the addition of six chapters dealing with recent advances in atomic physics, but the first ten chapters are essentially a reprint of the second edition of “The Electron” from which, at the request of the publishers, they differ only in minor details. It is a remarkable testimony to the previous presentation of the subject matter that new chapters can be added to the existing text with no apparent hiatus in the development of the book.
Electrons (+ and ), Protons, Photons, Neutrons and Cosmic Rays
