Two books on television should be noted. Mr. Thorne Baker's

Wireless Pictures and Television (Constable, 6s.) gives us a connected account of one of the great achievements of the age, and Television, by Mr. Dinsdale (Putnams, 2s.) gives the experiments leading up to Mr. Baird's inventions, which have already been described in the columns of the Spectator. Both books are technical, but not so technical that they cannot be readily understood by the average intelligent person.
