Critics Review
“The author’s enthusiasm, generosity of outlook, and industry haveproduced a most worthwhile addition to the literature.”–Nature
“A substantial step toward filling the void [in this field] and as such is most welcome and bound to be a success. Much of the book is written at a fairly elementary level and assumes virtually no previous acquaintance with the field. The volume is well executed, and some useful devices are employed to make it very readable…the language is extremely clear and precise. Most of the figures are well chosen and contribute appreciably to a better understanding ofthe text.”–Physics Today”The author’s enthusiasm, generosity of outlook, and industry have produced a most worthwhile addition to the literature.“–Nature
