This review, written for the metallurgist who would like to bring up to date his knowledge of temperature measurement, has been so prepared that it can be looked at with three alternative degrees of concentration. First, if the reader has a few minutes to spare, he can look at the photographs and their captions and learn a good deal about new methods and ideas. Secondly, the available methods of measurement are summarized in three tables. Finally, the full story is told in the text.
