ELECTRON OPTICS- ~AND THE

ELECTRON. MICROSCOPEBy V. K. Zworykin, G. A. Morton, E.Ramberg, J. Hillier, A. W. Vance; allRCA Laboratories, Princeton, N. J.

G.at

This comprehensive book covers the electronmicroscope in all its phases. The material for thebook was chosen to fulfill a twofold purpose. Thefirst is to aid the present or prospective electronmicroscopist in understanding his instrument andin using it to greatest advantage; the second, topresent systematically the practical and theoreti-cal knowledge which must form the basis for furtherprogress in electron microscope design.

To this end the book has been divided into twoparts. The first part contains descriptions of vari-ous types of electron microscopes together with a

non-mathematical discussion of the electron opticaltheories on which the electron microscope is basedand the practical information necessary for its ef-fective operation. The second part presents a sur-

vey of theoretical electron optics and employsmathematics as liberally as a methodical develop-ment of the subject matter warrants. This treat-ment is intended to supplement the practical in-formation of the first part and may serve as a guidein electron optical design.

THE PSYCHOLOGY OF

Invention in theMathematical FieldBy JACQUES HADAMARD. An informal analysis of the workings ofthe mathematical mind, based partly on the author's introspection, andpartly on the writings and statements of many other noted mathematicians."This pocket-size book tackles an encyclopedic subject and does it well.The problem of controlling the mechanism of thinking is outlined withclarity, and logical working methods applicable not only to mathematicsbut to all fields of science are integrated into the entire text."-ScientificMonthly. $2.00

How to Solve ItA NEW ASPECT OF MATHEMATICAL METHOD

By G. POLYA. A leading research mathematician seeks to tell, in thisdisarmingly elementary book, "what everybody knows but nobody cares toexpress-the procedures of the mind in searching for solutions of problems."To this end he has evolved a mathematical method, which is applicable tothe whole range of heuristic, and has included a wealth of illustrative ma-

terial. How to Solve It can be read with delight and profit by anyonewith mathematical interests. $2.50

UeseXTITRATORMade in

A universal Electro-Titrator using a highly stable and sensitive voltmetercircuit designed by Dr. R. L. Garman and Dr. M. E. Droz for determinations ofend-points in electrometric neutralization titrations (including pH determina-tions), oxidation-reduction titrations, and precipitation titrations.Some of its outstanding advantages are:

1. Variable sensitivity up to a maximum of 40 millivoltsper inch of needle deflection.

2. Battery operated, uses as little as 0.25 watts; fluctua-tions in the power supply are completely eliminated.

3. Direct reading meter with 3*" linear scale permitscontinuous readings of voltage changes.

4. Compact, sturdy design.Immediate Delivery

Used for control work and research work in leading laboratories throughout thecountry.

When students see actual specimens mag-nified to reveal the smallest details- when

they feel the thrill of using the tools of the

scientist, their interest in science expands.They learn quickly and thoroughly and

~the teacher's task is made easier.

~Here are four Spencer instruments de-

~~~signed to assist the teacher instmlin~~student interest,

.~.~.*....~Show specimens by projectionFrom the teacher's microscope a clear image of the

specimen can be projected onto a screen for all the

class to see. The Spencer No. 346 Prism fits over the

eye piece for simple microprojection.

~One microscope two observers

0 ~~~~~Teacher and student can view the same field at the

~~~~~~~sametime through the Spencer Demonstration Eye-~~~~~piece. A movable pointer, visible to both, makes ex-

~~~~~planation easy.

Magnify details for clarity

Objects which can be seen clearly with SpencerHand Magnifiers are encountered almost daily'. Ex-

cellent definition is achieved with either Doublets

ranging in power from 6X to 12X, or Triple Aplanats~~in powers from 6X to 15X.

~Let students cut sections

Cutting sections of specimens so thin that character-

istics may be studied under the microscope is fascinat-

% ~~~~~~~~ingto students. The Spencer Table Microtome is sim-

ple in construction and useful in demonstrating the

principles of microtomy.
