The book is divided into two parts: chemical theories and inorganic chemistry, and organic and physiologic theories. The first part is presented in the conventional manner except that the elements of the ever changing electron theory are substituted for the periodic system, the value of which in correlating large amounts of chemical information has been amply illustrated. While the electron theory is of prime importance in correlating chemical properties, the inclusion of this matter in a volume intended as a brief course for a group of specialists is somewhat doubtful. The second half of the book covers enough of the conventional matter of organic chemistry for an understanding of the subsequent general discussion of physiologic chemistry that might prove interesting and useful to SN - 0002-9955 M3 - doi: 10.1001/jama.1929.02700340075040 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jama.1929.02700340075040 ER -
