Abstract
THERE is a plethora of books to-day dealing with one aspect or another of the use of organic solvents in industrial operations. Almost the earliest of these was that of Dr. Durrans ; its utility is made clear by the fact that a fourth edition is now required. The preface speaks of a complete revision and amplification and an attempt to make it of use to a somewhat wider industrial field.
