Abstract
THE reissue in a new and enlarged form of Prof. Ricketts' well-known book will be welcomed by all who have used the former editions. As Dr. Miller now assists his chief, the book appears as a new one. It is intended to be used in the laboratories of works where only notes for reference are required, and long and detailed descriptions of well-known operations are unnecessary. The result is that it is written in a crisp and telegraphic style, which should commend itself not only to Americans, but to all busy assayers. On the other hand, students would often require a little supplementary oral teaching to enable them to perform the operations efficiently.
