Abstract
THIS volume belongs to the well-known series of “Manuals for Students,” and will pleasantly surprise those who imagine that the multitude of elementary textbooks of chemistry has made originality impossible. Of those smaller matters that readers and students generally accept with no more thought than their daily mercies, the index deserves especial mention as being exceptionally inclusive, and bearing evident signs of having been compiled by someone who had a sufficient knowledge of the subject to go beyond the mere verbiage, and enough patience to carry the task through.
An Elementary Text-book of Chemistry.
By William G. Mixter. Second and Revised Edition. (London: Macmillan and Co., 1889.)
