Abstract
THE author of the review of the first part of this book (NATURE, vol. xlix. p. 409) has given an account of it with which the present writer entirely agrees. Dr. Bischoff's book embodies a tolerably complete epitome of all that is known of a subject which at the present time has probably a larger number of cultivators than any other department of chemistry, and as a register of facts and references to original sources of information it is indispensable to the worker engaged upon stereo-chemical problems. On the other hand, the book is not only eminently unreadable, but the arrangement is sometimes far from clear.
