Abstract
AN important and possibly epoch-making memoir by Prof. E. von Fedorow, of St. Petersburg, is published in the last issue of the Zeitschrift für Krystallographie, entitled, “Die Praxis in der krystallochemischen Analyse und die Abfassung der Tabellen fur dieselbe.” It used frequently to be demanded by chemists of crystallographers, “Of what practical use is crystallography to us?” But the results of recent work have been so striking, and have gone so directly to the root of chemical constitution, that their cumulative effect has for ever rendered it perfectly obvious that crystallography is of fundamental importance to chemistry.
