Abstract
(1) A TREATISE on the implications to organic chemistry of new conceptions of the atom is particularly valuable at this stage when the arbitrary ideas of the chemist have been largely justified. Electro- and co-valencies, and the semi-polar bond are now universally recognized, and the complex hypotheses of induced polarity and conjugation are receiving physical interpretation.
