About the Book
Radioactive Measurements with Nu-
clear Emulsions is a description of the
theory and practice of nuclear emulsion
technique. The author has covered the
subject so completely that, with the aid
of this book, any scientist who owns a
microscope can make quantitative radio-
active measurements.
Nuclear emulsion technique (the use
of photographic emulsions in studying
radioactivity) is becoming important in
many fields. Dr. Yagoda recognized
this fact by drawing on five different
sciences for the methods described in
this book. The result is that Radioactive
Measurements with Nuclear Emulsions
is a comprehensive book, useful to any-
one who deals with radioactivity.
Dr. Yagoda gives a detailed descrip-
tion of many practical methods by
which photographic emulsions can be
used to measure radioactivity. In addi-
tion, he explains the theory which un-
derlies the chemical and photographic
operations involved. Among other
things, his book describes...

things, his book describes carrier precip-
itation methods, emanations, alpha-star
formation, and radiocolloid adsorption
phenomena.
The bibliography is another valuable
feature of Radioactive Measurements
with Nuclear Emulsions. The 700 items
included make up an almost complete
list of publications dealing with the use
of photographic emulsions in radioac-
tive measurements.
