Abstract
A FEW years ago the teacher of physical chemistry seeking a suitable elementary text-book, dealing with the more recent developments of the subject, which he could put into the hands of a class of students approaching the study of physical chemistry for the first time, was somewhat embarrassed to find one. This state of things is now changed for the better by the recent appearance of several very excellent works; among these Dr. Lehfeldt's book will take a high place. The author explains in his preface that the book “is intended to contain what a student—with limited time and many subjects to learn— may usefully read. It is by no means written to suit any examination, but still is written with the practical requirements of students in view.”
A Text-Book of Physical Chemistry.
By Dr. R. A. Lehfeldt. Pp. xii + 308. (London: Edward Arnold, 1899.)
