Abstract
DR. BLUH has written an introduction to physical science which is a valuable contribution to the literature of the subject. His book represents roughly that part of the content of physics which may be assumed to be the property of a well-prepared student for a general honours degree or of a student revising the preliminary stages of his reading for special honours. No topics of serious importance are omitted and the main thesis is developed logically and clearly through some 500 pages, from the first section on “Masse und Messen” to the end of the concluding section of the second part on “Klassische Physik und Quantenphysik”. A third part of the volume, some 30 pages in length, is devoted to the subject of the extent and significance of physical knowledge.
