DR.. Thomson's System OF
Chemistry.
IN YOUR VOLUMES OCTAVE.

IN FOUR VOLUMES OCTAVE.
TIME preceding edition OF DIR. Jhom-
sons Chemistry, had acquired SO
much reputation beth in England and up
or the continent Of Europe. that new
edition, comprising the new facts with
which the science had been enriched,
and the new views of the subject which
extended knowledge bad suggested as
indispensable, was eagerly looked Tor
by the scientific world. A new edition
has accordingly appeared, wherein the
former edition of five volumes has been
condensed into four.
All the new discoveries, and al the
new theories of Chemical Phenomena,
have been considered and embraced in
the present improved edition SO that it
lis indispensable to the chemical student,
as presenting the only condensed view
of the changes aud alterations in chemi-
cal doctrine, which the discoveries of the
last ten years have suggested. No apol-
ogy therefore can be necessary for re-
printing such book in this country; for
the press does not furnish a substitute
for il. But. there is SO much theoretical
suygestion-so much abstruse calculation
so much fact OF dubious authority-and
20 much dubious validity-that notes and
Illustrations are absolutely necessary,
not merely to render the book more use.
'al. but more ineligible.
? Under these impressions, | thought ut
70 write notes in illustration land some
times in contradiction OF the work itself,
| rather than to make any abridgement Of
lit. Those who wish to know the modern
views Of chemical science, must peruse
| it and to very many who will be anxious
to study it, calculation will be necessary
have cndeavoured to supply these, to
the best of my ability; regardless whe'
Their my own opinions are IN dissonance
or coincidence with those OF my author
leaving to the reader to decide between
US.
The work will be published, with note,
and Illustrations, in four volumes Svo.
