Abstract
THE present manual deals with practical electrochemistry in more detail than laboratory works on physical chemistry, and is more suited to a special course on the subject than to the ordinary course in physical chemistry, where there is not usually sufficient time available for so many experiments on electrochemistry. It includes inorganic and organic electrochemical preparations and potentio-metric titrations as well as an excellent series of experiments on the fundamental laws. Brief but very clear accounts of the theories are given, and the book will be useful in the study of theoretical electrochemistry as well as in the laboratory. The translation is good and the printing well done, although the paper is too thick for a laboratory manual and the book will not stay open on the bench. The book should be in every university and technical college laboratory for reference.
