Abstract
IF teachers of elementary physics are to keep up to date and to render their courses of instruction attractive, it is essential that they should be able to obtain accurate information of recent advances and their incidence on old knowledge, in a readable form. This little book appears to provide such information. It deals with the fundamental concepts of physics in a way which undoubtedly has great pedagogic value. The subject matter is attractively arranged, nicely set forth, very well illustrated, and the book provides a singularly neat introduction to present-day physics, in which practically all the important results of modern research have been incorporated.
