TY - JOUR T1 - Colloid chemistry: An introduction, with some practical applications. Y1 - 1919/10/04 N1 - 10.1001/jama.1919.02610400059034 JO - Journal of the American Medical Association SP - 1081 EP - 1081 VL - 73 IS - 14 N2 - In this little book—it contains only eighty-three pages of text—the author presents in a simple and terse manner the fundamental facts about colloids. It is delightful to read because it leads one through the rather complicated phases of colloidal chemistry, giving such a scientist as the physician an adequate view of the subject and yet obviating the more involved academic considerations. The important practical applications of this fascinating "twilight zone between physics and chemistry" increases one's interest in this study. The chapter on medicine happily contains no such unscientific statements or proprietary boosts as that of the English "Report on Colloid Chemistry" by the British Association for the Advancement of Science.
