Abstract
THE posthumous appearance of this autobiography of Amé Pictet, written without any directions as to its publication and, to judge from its outspoken nature, clearly intended for an intimate family circle and friends, is a noteworthy event and a fitting complement to the many appreciative notices of the man which have appeared since his death. Of the appropriateness of the decision of those who facilitated the appearance in print of what, in the minds of many, will be regarded as an interesting historical gem, there can be little question. All chemists, old and young, will profit by a perusal of these frank pages.
