fornia Institute of Technology. T H I S book represents t h e second of the "Foundations" series b y Dover Publica­ tions. It reprints 18 publications in the field of supersonic flow and includes a bibliography covering methods of analysis of high velocity flow, supersonic phenom­ ena, shock waves, boundary layer, and problems associated with unsteady flow. S o m e of t h e reprinted papers are prima­ rily of historical interest but the group con­ stitutes a reasonable compilation of earlier basic contributions together with a num­ ber of t h e more recent treatments which set forth the current state of knowledge in a particular field. T h e absence of papers relating to thermal transfer lessens the importance of this volume to the chemical engineering profession but the book still affords a useful acquaintance­ ship with this important branch of m e ­ chanics which appears to b e playing an increasingly significant role in chemical in­ dustry. The bibliography offers convenient ac­ cess to the voluminous specialized litera­ ture in this field and t h e papers afford the reader direct contact with several of the more important contributions. The fact that the eight foreign papers were not translated into English may lessen the general utility of this volume. Reports on t h e Progress of Applied Chemistry. Vol. 3 5 . 1950. F.

JURGKN

As usual, each of the 3 8 chapters has an excellent bibliography. Although there are only 6 4 more pages in t h e pressent volume than in t h e previous one, 4 9 of these are in the subject index, representing a 5 0 % expansion in its size. In m a k i n g several spot checks o n some of t h e l e s s common subject matter, t h e writer has been favorably impressed with the completeness of the subject coverage. The w o r l d geographical coverage is also good, reference having been noted t o publications from over 17 different coun­ tries. Graphic A i d s in Engineering tion.

T H I S boolc deals with slide rules, nomography, empirical equations, a n d graphi­ cal calculus in seven well organized chap­ ters. T h e first chapter discusses standard slide rules a n d offers the same type of information that is furnished t h e engineer by the s l i d e rule manufacturers in their instruction booklets. T h e chapter on e m ­ pirical equations covers five of t h e more common t y p e s of equations encountered in engineering and shows h o w empirical equations m a y b e developed to fit t h e experimental data. T h e authors present nothing new in their c h a p t e r on alignment charts b u t they describe constructional procedures in somewhat: more detail than d o other texts. T h e chapter on graphical calculus should be a w e l c o m e addition for most engineers since t h i s subject is usually given inade­ quate c o v e r a g e in their mathematics courses. A chapter is devoted to the use of determinants in the construction of alignment charts. T h e chapter o n special slide rules gives a more complete discus­ sion of t h e method of determining t h e order a n d direction of scales than is found in other texts. T h e final chapter deals with special types of nomographs contain­ ing m o v a b l e scales. This foook is designed for engineering students but should also serve as excellent reference for the practicing engineer.

T H E present volume ( X X X V ) of this valuable series covers the advances in in­ dustrial chemistry during the year 1950. Several n e w and improved features have been added. T h e most noticeable of these is the better quality paper and the new type, which is much easier to read than that formerly used. T h e summarized information is pre­ sented in 3 8 chapters which are grouped under eight divisions of related subjects.

Handling

Instructions for the safe handling and use of ammonium diehromate are contained in Chemical Safety Data Sheet SD-45, issued recently by MCA. Important physical and chemical properties of ammonium diehromate are given for t h e information of personnel handling and using it. Classified b y the Interstate Commerce Commission as a flammable solid, ammonium diehromate will ignite if exposed to flames or sparks. At elevated temperatures it decomposes and may react explosively with certain organic substances. A section o n health hazards and their control outlines first aid measures, personal protective equipment, and precautions to b e observed by workers w h o come in contact with the chemical. Unless employees are familiar with its properties, local irritation of mucous membranes and «skin are possible, and harmful effects may he produced if swallowed or inhaled. Copies of Chemical Safety Data Sheet SD-45 may b e ordered at 25 cents each from Manufacturing Chemists' Association, Inc., Woodward Building, 15th and H Sts., Washington 5 , D . C. Remittance should accompany order. Radiation

Dangers

"Radiation and Monitoring Fundamentals for the Fire Service" is the title of a booklet addressed to fire fighters w h o wish to inform themselves as to radiation dangers resulting from an atomic bomb explosion. Chapter headings include Fire Sendee and Radiation, Elementary Atomic Physics, General Features of Atomic Explosion, Radiation Detection and Monitoring, and Decontamination-Protective Safeguards. The publication is a sequel to a report issued in 1950 called "Radiation Hazards of Radioactive Isotopes in Fire Emergencies." According to the foreword, "Much has been written (perhaps too much) on the subjecting concerning the extensive and multiple damaging characteristics of atomic weapons and the civilian protection JUNE

that is to be provided. One can be resigned to confusion on reading through the printed thoughts on this general subject. For instance, early information widely featured the concept of an 'area of doom' with a specter of radiation poisoning, engendering a 'take to the hills* philosophy. . . . Scientists have advised defense officials to practically ignore radiation in the blasted area following an air burst ( except for minor precautions) and to move right in and rescue the injured and trapped . survivors . . . Any 'Hanging Sword of Damocles' attitude approaches defeatism, and resort must be made to calm and dispassionate reasoning. . . . This special publication is an effort to bring to the fire service this problem of radiological hazards in a proper perspective." The booklet is being distributed by the International Association of Fire Chiefs, Midston House, 22 East 38th St., New York 16, Ν. Υ. Changes in Characteristics Of Portland Cement A paper describing the changes in char­ acteristics of Portland cement over t h e years from 1904 to 1950 was presented at the 1951 annual meeting of ASTM. Part I describes changes in composition, fine­ ness, and* strength-producing characteris­ tics of Type 1 Portland cement as ex­ hibited by laboratory tests over the period. Part II includes composition, fineness, strength-producing characteristics, volume change, heat of hydration, and sulfate r e ­ sistance of the five types of Portland ce­ ment covered by ASTM Specification C 150. Copies of the booklet No. 127, illustrated with tables and graphs, is obtainable from American Society for Testing Materials, 1916 Race St., Philadelphia 3, Pa., for S 1.00 each. Textile Information in England The "Year Book of The Textile Institute and Library Catalogue" has been published by the Textile Institute, 10 Blackfriars St., Manchester 3, England. Contents include addresses of textile organizations, informa­ tion on scholarships, fellowships, examina­ tions in textile technology, list of members and officers, the president's message, yarn count systems, publications, and a great deal of other information interesting and pertinent to textile men.
