Abstract
PROF, VAN'T HOFF delivered these lectures in June, 1901, on the invitation of the University of Chicago. As they were intended for a mixed audience, they have a more or less popular character, but in places they would be difficult for anyone lacking special knowledge to follow, without the personal influence of the lecturer. Two lectures each are devoted to the influence exerted by physical chemistry on pure chemistry, technical chemistry, physiology and geology. The treatment is necessarily meagre, but many interesting subjects are touched fupon, and to students of science these lectures must prove stimulating and suggestive to a degree.
