A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

In publishing, however, these First Outlines of theD ictionary of Solubilities, which some years ago I began to compile, I wish to state the circumstances which have occasioned this course, and to request that the purport and aim of the book may be kept constantly in view. Some six years since, while attending lectures on applied science in Paris, I was first impressed with the great practical importance of a wider dissemination of our knowledge of the solubilities of salts, while at the same time I was convinced that Chemical Science itself might gain many advantages if all known facts respecting solubilities were gathered from the widely scattered original sources into one special comprehensive work, and thus presented in an easily accessible form. I at that time conceived the idea of collecting all the materials and embodying them in a dictionary, where each of the determinations already made might be within the reach of all persons interested, and which might, moreover, serve as a body of facts into which new and scattered observations should be incorporated, and from which erroneous statements, now current, could be eliminated, as they are from time to time disproved. The importance of such a work was the more clearly impressed upon me, since I had learned, by previous experience, how many difficulties and delays attend the correct determination of solubilities, and had observed how little attention is usually paid to the labors of earlier experimenters, either as regards avoiding or refuting their errors, or bearing witness to the accuracy of their results. Besides furnishing, as an aid to chemical research, either in the scientific or the practical laboratory, a catalogue of known (or supposed) facts, such a compilation might answer the further purpose of indicating to those willing to labor for the advancement of science the numerous gaps in our know
