cisely but clearly presented. Step by step the authors show how fundamental principles can be applied to the development of a satisfactory semiquantitative theory of solubility. Appropriate experimental data are frequently introduced, often graphically, to test the theoretical relationships and t o show how they may be applied.

He considers it an excellent contribution t o the scientific literature and is glad to recommend it to all who want a well-written, theoretically sound treatise on the subject. hf.4URICE L. HUGQINS.
