Excerpt from Optical Measuring Instruments: Their Construction, Theory, and Use
I accede with pleasure to the request that I should write a Foreword for the book of my colleague, Dr. Martin, on Optical Measuring Instruments. More especially do I do so, because it was at my invitation that he originally turned his attention to the subject, when the Department of Optical Engineering and Applied Optics was founded at the Imperial College.
In Dr. Martin's book the student will find, brought together for the first time, descriptions of a number of well-selected typical instruments, which embody and exemplify in their design, construction, and use, optical principles and devices of great interest and of wide application - information which hitherto it has been very difficult if not impossible to obtain except by reference to the records of the Patent Office, or those of learned societies. This bringing together of cognate matter should be of great value and convenience to everyone interested in the application of optical measuring means to instruments of precision generally.
The limitations, for measuring purposes, of the human eye were humorously brought out by a friend of mine - a famous inventor of range-finders - when, some years ago, he deplored the fact that nature had not seen fit to impress our retinas with stereoscopic scales, by means of which ranges could be accurately determined without any instrumental aid.
