This opportunity to work under his guidance enabled me to appreciate his excellence in the laboratory. As can be seen by looking at the first edition of his book The Physics and Chemistry of Surfaces , his initial endeavour as a surface chemist was to survey the range of phenomena exhibited by monolayers, using the surface balance which George Jessop and he invented. These results he then endeavoured to explain in terms of the molecular structures of the substances concerned. One of the tools he found useful was the evidence on the shapes and sizes of organic molecules made available by Lawrence Bragg s X-ray diffraction data. This was reflected in a chapter on X-ray diffraction studies which was included in the first edition. By the time the second edition was prepared...
