leading up to Schroedinger quantum mechanics; a careflfl introduction to the basic theory of that subject, using an inductive rather than a postulatory approach; and illustrations of the theory through a complete discussion of a large nunlber of typical calculations. Finally, he uses the theory to give a detailed explanation of the properties of atoms and nuclei. The author launches each topic near its beginning by means of arguments that presuppose only a background in elementary physics, and in mathematics through intermediate calculus.
ENGINEERING DATA FOR PRODUCT DESIGN, edited by Douglas C. Greenwood. 425 pages, diagrams, 8½ X 111 in. New York, McGraw-Hill Book Co., Inc., 1961. Price, $10.00. This manual has been prepared to help the engineer solve design problems. Through charts, formulas, tables, and special articles (laken from Product Engineering) the author ph,'es valuable and time-saving data at the (mgertips of designers, about metals and alloys, nonmetallic materials, finishes, and design analysis. Clearly illustrated and carefully indexed, the manual should be of real help in answering questions about beams, torque, gears, shafts, control, and the application of electricity, electronics, hydraulics, and pneumatics to product engineering.
EIA';CTRICAL ENGINEERING, by S. B. Hammoud. 547 pages, diagrams, 7 X 9½ in. New York, McGraw-Hill Book Co., Inc., 1961. Price, $8.75. This text is intended to be used for engineering students not majoring in electrical engineering. It covers the basic principles of electricity, its use and control. Sample chapter headings are: Characteristics of Voltages and Currents; Electric Networks; Nonlinear Resistor Circuits ; Electron Physics; Feedback Circuits; Linear Approximations to Machine Analysis; Digital Computers; and Magnetic Fields and Circuits. The three lnain divisions deal with electric circuit analysis, electronics, atv.l cou'~ersioll of energy.

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF PORTS AND MARINE STRUCTURES, by Alonzo DeF. Quinu. 521 pages, illustrations, 6 X 9 in. New York, McGraw-Hill Book Co., Inc., 1961. Price, $16.00. in this work, the author brings together the essential concepts of designing and building modern shipping-terminal, harbor, and offshore marilm s t r u c t u r e s ~ l o n g with the working principles and practices that can be adapted to specific project requirements, lte provides you with authoritative construction know-how and recommendations for achieving top efficiency and economy in meeting the demands of today's advanced engineering techniques. This is the only U. S. published book dealing solely with ports and marine structures. FUNI)AMENTALS OF CIRCUIT THEORY, ])\ Norman Balabanian. 548 pages, diagrams, 6 X 9 in. Boston, Allyn and Bacon, Inc., 1961. Price, $9.50. The author, Norman Balabanian of the Electrical Engineering Department of Syracuse University, states in his preface that this book is his attempt at giving an account of the concepts and techniques of circuit theory. The book's 13 chapters include Resistance Networks, Complete Response of Simple Networks, Sinusoidal Steady-State Response, The Complex-Frequency Variable, Two-Port Networks, Electronic Devices and Their Models, Operational Diagrams and Signal Flow Graphs, and Complete Response to Arbitrary Wave Forms. Intended primarily as a textbook, the author has attempted to leave the student with the impression that circuit theory can still challenge his inventiveness, that it still has plenty of vitality and that it is not, by any means, a finished subject. AN INTRODUCTION TO THE THEORY AND PRACTICE OF TRANSISTORS, by F. F. Roberts and J. R. Tillman. 335 pages, diagrams, plates, 5½ X 8½ in. New York, John Wiley & Sons, lnc., 1961. [)rice, $8.00. The authors have prepared this book to present a wide treatment of the subject in one vohlme, for newcomers to the transistor and related semicondnctor fields. Part 1,
