Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Wilhelm RA¶ntgen's discovery of x-rays in 1895 revolutionised many areas of 20th century science. While everybody knows the uses of x-rays in medicine and dentistry, and in security checks at airports, and while the space age will have drawn the attention of many to a-ray astronomy, most people are still unaware of the wide ranging applications of x-rays.
