Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of Reference Books in Physics Suitable for Secondary Schools A list of reference books in Physics was published by the Association six years ago, through a conviction that a reference library for pupils and teachers should be available in connection with the work in Physics in the secondary schools. Owing to the rapid development of the science, the changes in theories and methods of presentation, as well as the great number of new books published in this department of science, a complete revision was ordered by the Association to meet present needs. In making the revision this committee is deeply indebted to the former committee under the chairmanship of Charles R. Allen for the general plan of the work. Many books included in the earlier list have now been omitted as less valuable than later books, or because out of print. Many later publications have been added. The list is primarily designed to be a guide and help to the teacher in selecting his reference library. The conditions and nature of the instruction in science vary so widely in different schools that it has seemed best to make the list quite comprehensive, trusting that the appended comments may enable a teacher to select those books most suited to his special needs. While the principal list includes essentially books of reference for secondary schools, there have been added the following minor lists: (a) A title list of the more recent high school textbooks of Physics, with their publishers. (b) A list of the addresses of some of the more important publishers of scientific books. (c) A list of books costing $30, which would constitute a valuable nucleus for a library. (d) A second list of books costing $30, which, with the above list, would constitute a valuable and economical working library.
