Originally published in 1914, this book presents an account of the principles of photoelectricity, incorporating the numerous advances in the area that occurred around the time of publication. The text is comprehensive in scope with 'all forms of ionisation by light being considered, whether in solids, liquids or gases'. Illustrative figures are incorporated throughout. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in physics, photoelectricity and the history of science.
