Abstract
THIS work, intended for teachers, consists of a series of examination papers arranged in a progressive and logical order. It is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical, and is written, as the author tells us, “not as a crambook, but as a means of testing the student's knowledge and progress.” The first part treats of questions on hydrogen, oxygen, ozone, &c., followed by a set of general questions on the above, concluding with a collection of papers taken from various examinations, such as the London Matriculation, Science and Art Department, Oxford and Cambridge Locals, &c. Part II. deals with questions on simple and mixed salts and elementary quantitative analysis. The work is one of the “School Examination Series” edited by A. M. M. Stedman, and should prove serviceable to those teaching natural science in many of our schools.
