Abstract
SELDOM has a book on a technical subject been so fortunate in catching the flood-tide of demand as the first edition of this treatise on explosives. The general excellence of the work combined with the enormous development in the production of explosives, accounts for the issue of a second edition within two years of its first appearance. As Mr. Marshall points out in his preface, “the war has not caused the introduction of any very novel explosives, despite sensational statements of some journalists.”
