Abstract

I SHOULD have been much disappointed if Dr. Tutin had taken my review of his book lying down. Indeed he has not done so, but he has added little or nothing in his reply to his development of the A atom. Paragraphs (l)–(4) merely reiterate what he claims that the A atom has done and the R-B atom has not. These claims are frankly preposterous.
