Abstract
THE appearance of any work on the history of chemistry which is more than a sketch of the subject is so infrequent that a general expression of satisfaction and a recommendation seem inevitable in all cases, and are usually given to the exclusion of any detailed criticism. There are, however, certain general errors which seem fated to recur in all such works, and it may be useful, in addition to the statement that the present work is one which every chemist should add to his library, to notice some of these here.
