Abstract
THIS is an instance of a magic carpet, though we suspect it was really a steamer, which has transplanted a professor and his book from Europe to the Americas, the language changing during the process from German to Anglo-Saxon. The original German work was published in 1927 and translated for publication in New York by Prof. Furman. Prof. Kolthoff now has the collaboration of Dr. Stenger, a chemist employed in industry. This is a significant indication of the alliance between theory and practice which is so marked a feature of American science.
