Abstract
THIS very readable book differs in many respects from recent text-books treating of physical chemistry; it resembles more closely a modern version of Lothar Meyer's treatise, but contains, at the same time, the more recent views, the introduction of which dates from van 't Hoff's memorable paper in 1887. It is non-mathematical; indeed, the treatment of the subject might have often been more methodical and clear if symbols had been more freely employed.
