Abstract
THE Faraday and Röntgen Societies did good work when they held a joint meeting in April last year and thrashed out the position as regards the achievements, possibilities, and limitations of the method of the examination of materials by X-rays. The present volume will form a most useful jumping-off point for the investigator or manufacturer who desires to know what had been achieved in industrial radiology up to 1919. The contributors to this “symposium number” include many of the leading radiographers in this country who have not confined their interests to medical radiology. Not all the noteworthy work achieved during and since the war was, however, available for publication when the discussion was held.
The Examination of Materials by X-rays. A General Discussion held by the Faraday Society and the Röntgen Society, Tuesday, April 29, 1919.
Pp. 88 + 64. (Reprinted from the Transactions of the Faraday Society, vol. xv., part 2, 1919.) (London: Faraday Society, 1919.) Price 13s. 6d.
