Abstract
THE Committee of the Fondation Edmond de Rothschild has caused this book to be written as a preliminary step in the planning of investigations with electric furnaces, to extend scientific knowledge and industrial applications. It forms a review of electric furnace constructions and their applications and succeeds in covering the ground fairly thoroughly. Recognising that advances in chemistry and physics are frequently closely associated with the invention or development of new apparatus, an attempt is made to describe various types of electric furnace and to asso ciate with the several forms a summary of the main researches already carried out by their aid.
