Abstract

1)YET another text-book of inorganic chemistry! This one is intended for “boys in the upper forms of secondary schools and students in technical institutes.” It will be found useful by many others also. It is difficult nowadays to present a systematic course of inorganic and general chemistry with any novelty,nor is the ground covered by the present book very different from that covered by others. What is characteristic is the experimental nature of the treat ment. Although, the course is systematic the endeavour has been made, and made with considerable success, to bridge the gap which too often, unfortunately, separates the lecture from the laboratory. The book is written on the sound principle of uniting the lecture and the laboratory, and for that reason it will probably earn a place for itself among chemical manuals.
