Viscometry

Abstract

THE author begins his preface by commenting on the striking disproportion between the small number of works devoted to the subject of viscosity and the enormous number of papers which deal with one or the other of its aspects. Such books as there are give a limited space only to methods of measurement, and the author has felt “that there was need of a book devoted entirely to viscometry, in which an investigator would be able to find some account of most of the schemes which have been applied and some indication of the theoretical and practical difficulties that affect each of them”.

A Monograph of Viscometry.

By Dr. Guy Barr. Pp. xiv + 318. (London: Oxford University Press, 1931.) 30s. net.
