Abstract

(1) THE new edition of Perkin and Kipping's “Organic Chemistry” embodies all the familiar features of the earlier editions. But the material of the Appendix has now been incorporated in Parts i. and ii., and new chapters or sections have been added, dealing with subjects such as the Grignard reagents, the configuration of the carbohydrates, and the cyclo-paraffins. In its revised form the book will carry on effectively the useful work of the former editions as a standard text-book of organic chemistry.
