Professor Nagata's remarks and reviews on metrization are always worth close scrutiny by anyone interested in topology. The two main results of the paper under review are: Theorem 1. A regular space \(X\) is metrizable iff it has a \(\sigma\)-closure-preserving \(k\)-network \(\bigcup{\mathcal F}_n\) such that each \({\mathcal F}_n\) is pseudo-interior-preserving; Theorem 2. A \(T_1\)-space \(X\) is metrizable iff there is a decreasing \(g\)-function \(g(n,x)\), \(n\in \mathbb{N}\), \(x\in X\), where each \(g(n,x)\) is a (not necessarily open) neighbourhood of \(x\), which satisfies \(\overline{A}= \bigcap_{n\in\mathbb{N}} \bigcup_{x\in A}g(n,x)\) for every \(A\subseteq X\) and \(y\in g(n,x)\) implies \(g(n,y)\subseteq g(n-1,x)\) \((n\geq 2)\). Five problems are posed.
