| Jun 7, 2020 at 15:12 | comment | added | J W | For an introduction to measurement and instrumentation, see for instance Measurement and Instrumentation: Theory and Application by Morris & Langari. Also of possible interest: Handbook of Modern Sensors by Fraden. (For those reading these comments and not yet experts.) | |

| Jun 7, 2020 at 6:39 | comment | added | Massimo Ortolano | @lalala Metrology is a vast discipline and there's no comprehensive book. However you can find some good specialized books. If you're interested in the foundations of the current revised SI and quantum standards, this one is a very good book. Good general papers can be found also in the Proceedings of the International School of Physics "Enrico Fermi", courses CX, CXLVI, CXLVI, CLXVI, CLXXXV and CXCVI. | |
