Abstract
THE fifteenth German edition of this well-known book contains many emendations and additions, especially in the concluding portions devoted to the reactions of the alkaloids and the systematic methods of detecting them. Of this edition of the original work the present edition of the English translation is as nearly as possible an exact reproduction, and inuch credit is due to the translator and editor for the care with which he has accomplished a very difficult task. Various styles of type and other typographical improvements have been introduced, in the hope, as Mr. Groves explains, that the book may thereby be rendered more handy and useful to students.
Qualitative Chemical Analysis.
By Dr. C. Remigius Fresenius. Tenth Edition. Translated and edited by Charles E. Groves, F.R.S. (London: J. and A. Churchill, 1887.)
