Abstract

Wentorf, R. H., Jr. (Ed.), Modern Very High Pressure Techniques, Butterworths, Washington, D. C, 247 pp., 1962, $11.25.This collection of papers on apparatus for very high pressure (>20 kb) research was brought together to acquaint the ‘newcomer’ with the major lines of development of equipment, some experimental results, and key references to the literature on high pressure. The book appears, after some delay, on the heels of Progress in Very High Pressure Research (see review in Trans. Am. Geophys. Union, 42, 436, 1961) which deals not only with high pressure apparatus but mainly with the kinds of data which can be collected in such apparatus.
