Instrumentation and Monitoring Methods for Radiation Protection, NCRP Report 57, pp. v + 177, 1978 (NCRP Publications, Washington, D.C.), $5.00. ISBN 0–913392–40–5.

This excerpt was created in the absence of an abstract.

This report, which has been in the course of preparation since the early 1960's, supersedes NCRP Report 10 which was published as National Bureau of Standards Handbook 51 in 1952.

Two short introductory chapters are followed by one on area survey methods, the longest in the report. This considers not only monitoring as such but also includes lengthy check lists of all factors that should be considered in a radiation protection survey.
