Abstract
TO write a satisfactory text-book for students in physical laboratories is a task beset with difficulties; and although Prof. Pickering has had the advantage of no small experience and judgment in the composition of the work the title of which is given above, we do not think that he has entirely overcome them.

By Edward C. Pickering, Phayer Professor of Physics in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Part I. (London: Macmillan & Co., 1874.)
