Organic ChemistryAT the author's request I have carefully examined this Manual; and, as a result, I have recommended its publication, in the belief that it will be a valuable adjunct to my Introduction to the Study of the Compounds of Carbon. Great care has evidently been taken to determine the best conditions for each experiment; and, in many cases, the directions given are undoubtedly better than those given in my book. This is largely due to the fact that the author has, for a number of years, had charge of the work of preparation of compounds of carbon in a large labora tory; and he has therefore had an excellent oppor tunity thoroughly to test difierent methods, opportunity which he has well utilized.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
