guarded and a few cubic centimeters of gas were lent to Dee and Walton to produce their beautiful photographs of these reactions. I bought from G. N. Lewis for 10 dollars in 1933 during my Berkeley visit, about two litres of water containing about 2 per cent D20. After proudly showing this to Rutherford on my return I was told I should have got his agreement for this (at the time) large-scale expenditure! Chadwick's discovery of the neutron, and Blackett and Occhialini's work on electron pair production, and Chadwick and Goldhaber's work on the photo production of positrons, do not appear in this volume, since Rutherford was not a co-author. They formed a part of the extremely exciting results of 1932-3--the annum mirabilis of Cavendish. This volume presents a very good picture of Rutherford's interests in his later years, and we are very grateful to Sir James Chadwick for his devoted work in producing it.

Without some modification of the definition, or explicit recognition that F's being IFR imply that F (0) = 0, the properties of IFR distributions presented in this chapter (i.e., boun
