Summary |
The book may be divided into four principal sections; Chapter 1 deals with the fundamental problem of radiation detection while Chapters 2-7 inclusive deal with various types of detector and methods of operation. The third section, Chapter 8-11, is concerned with ancillary apparatus and the last two chapters introduce the problems of reactor kinetics and control and indicate how the various instruments and techniques described earlier are applied in reactor instrumentation schemes. While the treatment is on the whole descriptive no attempt has been made to eliminate mathematics where this can be used in the argument.
