Subject: Physics Lab Manual 1938
Date: Sun, 05 Feb 2006 10:25:18 -0500
In the continuing process of cleaning out my bookshelves in the basement,
I came across an interesting book, "Physics Laboratory Manual" by
John Clark, Frederick Gorton, and Francis Sears, published by Houghton
Mifflin Company, 1938.
This 135-page, one-pound, hard-cover book was used by students of Samuel
Gompers
Vocational High School in Bronx, New York from 1938 to 1948. It contains
50
experiments ranging from Archimedes Principle and surface tension
experiments
to electromagnetic induction and Lenz law.
I would be happy to send this book to the first person on this list-serve
who
offers a compelling reason for its acquisition and agrees to reimburse me
$10
for packing and mailing it.
