Abstract
THIS somewhat ponderous volume is the first of a series of the same character it is proposed to publish annually. It comprises a compendium of those constants of physics, chemistry and technology which result from researches published during the year 1910. The volume would appear to bear to Science Abstracts and the Abstracts published by the Chemical Society about the same relation as a dictionary to an encyclopaedia. It is compiled under the auspices of an international committee, on which Dr. Wilsmore is the British representative, aided by a number of collaborators and abstractors, the general secretary of the committee and editor-in-chief being Dr. C. Marie, of Paris.
