Het Radium en de Geneeskunde.

Amsterdam:: H. Meulenhoff, 1912., 1912. 8vo. [vi], 68 pp. Frontispiece portraits of Pierre & Marie Curie, 5 plates. Original printed paper covers; paper somewhat brittle, browned, covers off, extremities chipped. Title and cover with three rubber-stamps from Dutch institutions. Very rare. "In this booklet of 68 pages the author, who recently opened a radium treatment facility in Amsterdam, gives a simple, almost popular overview of the present state of our knowledge of radium and radium treatment. Starting with the discovery of the Roentgen rays, ZEEHANDELAAR describes the discoveries of BECQUEREL and the CURIES, whose portraits serve as the title page [frontispiece], and then goes on to discuss other radioactive substances and the various rays emitted by radium . . ." - [review] P.
