Abstract
DR. THOMAS'S book on “Complex Salts” is a small volume of about 120 pages, intended more especially for students reading for final and honours degrees. It differs from a recent book by Schwarz on “The Chemistry of the Inorganic Complex Compounds” (see NATURE, October 27, 1923, p. 617) in that it deals in a much more general manner with the problems of molecular asymmetry, optical activity, methods of resolution and rotatory dispersion of optically-active complex salts. On these subjects Dr. Thomas has himself done important original work.
