Riassunto

Excerpt from Physics: Advanced Course

The author's aim has been to avoid making the book simply an encyclopedic collection of facts on the one hand, or too purely an abstract and theoretical discus sion of physical theories on the other. The ground covered is that which is usually traversed by students in the more extended courses in Physics in our leading Universities, Colleges, and Technological Institutes. The mathematics required in the derivation of the for mulas is only that with which students taking such courses may be presumed to be already acquainted. Obviously, however, these derivations can be omitted at the discretion of the instructor. To facilitate the use of the book in the class-room most of the illustrative and explanatory matter is printed in a smaller type.

With regard to the subject-matter of the book, the author lays no claim to any originality. He has made free use of all the sources of information at his com mand and has freely given credit for the material thus taken. The names of those physicists to whom the science is most deeply indebted are given in connection with the' subjects on which they have worked; and in order to bring the student into more intimate contact with these great minds, the laws or principles which they formulated have frequently been given in their ownwords. Especially has this been done in the case of American investigators. To make more easy a reference to these workers in science, their names have been in cluded in the index.
