Measurement sounds like a dry-as-dust subject. But this book is actually an engrossing, easy-to-read study that treats a multifaceted topic with wit, imagination, and wide-ranging scholarship. Metrology, the science of measurement, usually deals with length, weight, volume, etc., but this comprehensive work encompasses nuclear radiation, thermal power, light, sound, and other fascinating areas.
