Abstract
ORGANIC chemistry is now progressing with such rapid strides, that a work on this subject becomes antiquated, at least in some parts, in the course of a few years. A new edition of a well known and favourite book must therefore be most welcome to students of this branch of chemical science, and more so when edited by a man whom we may justly call “the English Gmelin.”
