Abstract
THIS little book consists of an account of four lectures, delivered to teachers by the author, at the request of the Technical Instruction Committee of the West Riding County Council. The author remarks that “The reflection that hundreds of such teachers should have been willing to sacrifice their Saturday afternoons to the study of certain physical measurements which did not even possess the charm of novelty may somewhat lighten the gloomy prospect sketched for us by those who hold pessimistic views as to the future of Intermediate Scientific Education in this country.”
The Thermal Measurement of Energy.
Lectures delivered at the Philosophical Hall, Leeds, by E. H. Griffiths. Pp. viii + 133. (Cambridge: University Press, 1901.)
