AAPT programs

A volume of reprints of articles dealing with physics apparatus for lecture room and laboratory has been prepared by the American Association of Physics Teachers’ Committee on Apparatus for Educational Institutions. The articles were originally published in the American Journal of Physics and its predecessor, the American Physics Teacher. The Committee believes that physics teachers will want to be reminded of the existence of these articles and will find it convenient to have them within the covers of this single 300‐page paperback volume. The articles range in publication date from 1933 to 1960, in subject field from mechanics to nuclear physics, and in length from notes of a fraction of a page to review articles several pages long. The eighty articles included were selected carefully, but not exhaustively, as ones that seem to make a continuing contribution to physics teaching.
