Abstract
THIS interesting monograph gives an account, partly historical, partly expository, of what in our opinion is the most important theoretical contribution towards solving the problem of the constitution of organic compounds that has been made since the idea of a definite union of atoms within the molecule was first introduced into chemistry, of which idea, indeed, the new theory is an expansion. The work has the advantage of being written by one of the originators of the theory.
