KINGZETT, CHARLES THOMAS. Popular chemical dictionary. *$4 Van Nostrand 540.3
(Eng ed 20–10609)
A work in which the author has attempted “to give in one volume, in compendious form, and in simple language, descriptions of the subjects of chemistry—its laws and processes, the chemical elements, the more important inorganic and organic compounds and their preparation or manufacture and applications, together with illustrated descriptions of chemical apparatus.” (Preface) The author has written “Chemistry for beginners and school use,” “Animal chemistry,” and other works.
“The work, so far as it goes, is very complete. For purposes of strict reference this volume is far too ‘popular.’” G. M.
