Excerpt from The Alkali Industry
Of more importance than the explanation of the known is the creation of new knowledge, especially as the working conditions essential to the success of a process have usually to be determined in each case de novo. In this branch of technical research the law of mass action and the principles of thermodynamics have played a prominent part, and the treatment has therefore included these two branches of physical chemistry. This branch of modern Chemistry has not in this country received the attention it merits and enjoys in lands where Chemical industry is making more progress than was formerly the case here.
