A SHORT MANUAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY.

AND
WILSON HAKE, Ph.D., F.I.C., F.C.S.,
Of the Westminster Hospital Medical School
Third Edition, Revised, Enlarged, and Re-issued. Price 6s. net.
"A well-written, clear and accurate Elementary Manual of Inorganic Chemistry.... We agree heartily with the system adopted by Drs. Dupré and Hake. Will Make Experimental Work trebly interesting because intelligible."—Saturday Review.
"There is no question that, given the perfect grounding of the Student in his Science, the remainder comes afterwards to him in a manner much more simple and easily acquired. The work is an example of the advantages of the Systematic Treatment of a Science over the fragmentary style so generally followed. By a long way the best of the small Manuals for Students."—Analyst.
