Abstract
THIS work is a most valuable contribution to the literature of chemistry. Its aim, as stated in the Preface, is to place before the reader a fairly complete, and yet a clear and succinct statement of the facts of modern chemistry, whilst at the same time entering so far into a discussion of chemical theory as the size of the work and the present transition state of the science permit, special attention being also paid to the accurate description of the more important processes in technical chemistry, and to the careful representation of the most approved forms of apparatus employed.
A Treatise on Chemistry.
