This is the first volume in a new series of text-books dealing comprehensively with each branch of chemistry. While the books are not absolutely exhaustive, which would make them bulky and expensive, they give in detail the most important parts of each subject, and supplement lack of detail by copious references to the best literature. Every care has been taken to check the accuracy of the references, which will make the series a most valuable one.
