✦ Synopsis


In the present: listing, in addition to the oil engine applications of the earlier list, other industrial applications of sprays have been noted, as well as such borderline subjects as dusts, powders.

The bibliography itself was prepared in connection with two research projects, one for the U. S. Navy Department, Bureau of Ordnance, and the other for The Texas Company.

The entries are arranged alphabetically by attthor, and generally full bibliographical data are given, with the titles of foreign entries both in the original language and translated into English. Abstracts are included. About ten per cent of the entries would seem to be cited without having been seen. It is to be hoped that in undertaking a revision, more of these will be examined, since a considerable part of those cited would seem to be relatively available. A subject index is included.

The method of reproduction unfortunately leaves something to be desired, since some entries run off the bottom of the page. Despite these deficiencies, the bibliography presents evidence of a quite extensive coverage of the literature which will prove useful and the author should be encouraged in his plans to keep it up-to-date.
