Torge (geodesy, U. of Hannover) gives a sound synopsis of current gravity measuring systems, their use, and data processing and evaluation. He takes note of the sources of error in measurements, and speculates upon achievable precision. Sections cover theory, the space-time structure of the exterior gravity field, practical value, absolute and relative measurements, gravimetric surveys, gradiometry.
