Abstract
IN this volume Dr. Brunswig attempts to direct the study of explosives from the largely empirical methods of the past into the more definite fields of exact physical chemistry, in which the nature, causes of explosion, and the controlling conditions governing such phenomena naturally fall. For this purpose he has collected the well-known facts (and in many instances those frequently overlooked) and arranged them in a systematic manner.
