    Notes: [Auszug] PROF. M. M. FROCHT's book is the long-awaited second volume of his work, the first volume of which was published in 1941. It would probably be fair to say that, in contrast to the first volume, the emphasis in this book is strongly on elasticity. Two-fifths of the book is devoted to a consideration ...

Periodate oxidation showed that 80 per cent of the xylose residues possess a-glycol groupings and these are linked, therefore, through C(1) and either C(2) or C(4), if the possibility of the ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IT is impossible to read this volume without comparing it with that of Hodge and Pedoe on the "Methods of Algebraic Geometry", and indeed the two make excellent companion volumes, each amplifying the other. B. Segre presents a somewhat broader account of various fields and processes ; but his ...

    Notes: [Auszug] ONE of the chief problems which arises in teaching the social sciences is that they all deal with separate aspects of the same subject-matter, namely, the behaviour of man in society. What is now termed the multi-disciplined approach in the United States has brought several of these sciences into ...
