The success of Prof, von Richters work abroad would indicate its possession of more than ordinary merit. This we believe true, inasmuch as, in pfesenting his subject to the student, the author has made it a point to bring out prominently the relations existing between fact and theory. These, as well known, are, in most text-books upon inorganic chemistry, considered apart, as if having little in common. The results attained by the latter method are generally unsatisfactory. The first course that adopted by our author to most minds would be the more rational. To have experiments accurately described and carefully performed, with a view of drawing conclusions from the same and. proving the intimate connection between their results and thetheories based upon them, is obviously preferable to their separate study, especially when they are treated in widely removed sections or chapters of the same book. Judging from the great demand for von Richter swork, occasioning the rapid appearance of three editions, the common verdict would seem to be unanimously in favor of its inductive methods. In the third editioa, of which the present. is a translation, the Periodic System of theE lements, as announced by Mendelejeff and Lothar Meyer, is somewhat different, in the manner of development and presentation, from that appearing in the previous editions.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the realm of inorganic chemistry, a branch of science that investigates the composition and properties of various chemical elements and their compounds, predominantly excluding the study of carbon-based, organic substances. The author's approach is historical and comparative, tracing the development of inorganic chemistry from its earliest origins to present-day applications. Key topics include the classification of elements, their atomic structures, physical and chemical properties, and the formation of inorganic compounds. The book's comprehensive perspective allows readers to appreciate the intricate connections between theory and experimentation that have shaped our understanding of inorganic chemistry. It elucidates the evolution of fundamental concepts like the periodic table and the development of analytical techniques, providing a valuable context for contemporary research and advancements in the field. Ultimately, this book not only serves as a testament to the historical significance of inorganic chemistry but also highlights its enduring relevance in various industries and scientific disciplines, emphasizing its role in shaping our comprehension of the material world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
