“A possible objection to the proposed course lies in the introduction of the vernier and the micrometer calimeter. The use of these instruments seems contrary to the authors’ attempt to avoid the ‘creeping-over’ of the methods and the instruments of research and specialization from the university into the high school, where they have absolutely no place. The same objection might be urged against the use of per cent. errors and discussion of accuracy of measurements. The book is to be commended, not only for its improvements over older manuals, but also as part of a completed and tried course.” F. R. Watson.

“From the first words of the preface ... to the end of the book, there is so much involved construction and verbiage, combined with misprints that the author’s ‘reasons are as two grains of wheat hid in two bushels of chaff.’”
