Following the developmenL of atomic magnetism up t o the Land6 factor equation, dinmagnetism is dcswibcd for hoth ionic cryst,als and molecular substances. Pa~amagnetism is treated for m o l e a h substnnees briefly and rather move completely for the transition m e l d complexes. Perhaps half of the hook is devoted t o consideration of interactions in tho solid state resulting in fe~.romngnetism,nntife~.romngnetism, and ferl.imngnetism. The entire treatment requires liltlc mnthemntiaal hnckgronnd, bill, pres,lmes familiarity with inorganic, mgnnir:, and phyrirnl chemistry, each at. the elemenlnry level.

The nineteenth Ammd Summer Symposium on Analyticd Chemistry was held a t the University of Alberta in J m e , 1966. This v o h m e publishes twenty of the papers there presented, by nearly 50 contributors. The majority of t,he papers deal wit,h topics related m d e r the general theme of chromatography. I t is also noteworthy bhat '%iorhemistryn is in the title. Symbiosis involving 'Lanslyt,icaI" and "biochemistry" snrely is evident. WFK
