Abstract
THEORY and laboratory experiments in organic chemistry are combined in this book. Only the more important compounds are discussed, and experiments of a difficult or dangerous character are purposely omitted. Review tables, giving at a glance the chemistry of groups of compounds, are supplied at frequent intervals. The theoretical part of the book is somewhat less satisfactory than the practical, for it is frequently very condensed. The book is well printed and illustrated. This is one of the very few elementary books on organic chemistry which give an accurate description of fractional distillation.
