Abstract
IN revising their work for its second edition, Profs. Lemon and Ference have added some eighteen pages of new material, including many of the more recent developments in electronics and nuclear physics. The betatron, the cavity magnetron, the general principles of radar, and nuclear fission, are among the new topics mentioned. The treatment of the triode has been expanded, though the only hint as to its rectifying action is contained in an artist's design at the head of Chapter 33, which looks like one of the relevant graphs.
