Abstract
DR. GLASSTONE'S book is of a type which should be very welcome. It deals with a number of aspects of chemistry which are of interest in daily life, and each chapter concludes with a few questions, some subjects for essays and discussion, suggestions for further study, books to read, and suggestions for experiments. The contents are based on a course of extension lectures and some B.B.C. broadcast talks, and the style and choice of material are both excellent.
