The author begins with the Early history of ozone and its general properties, and continues his treatment of the subject with chapters on: The natural occurrence of ozone: Chemical production; Thermal production; The electrolytic preparation of ozone; Production by ultraviolet radiation and by ionic collision; Production by means of the silent electric discharge; The catalytic decomposition of ozone; Industrial applications; Methods of detection and analysis. There are two indexes, to names and subjects. The author is professor of physical chemistry in the University of Illinois and the book is published as one of the series, A treatise on electro-chemistry, edited by Bertram Blount.
“The author deals with the whole fascinating subject in a manner which should appeal to most readers.”

“The author has been distinctly successful in his effort to collect and correlate the various references to ozone which occur in chemical literature, and his monograph will be welcomed if only for that reason. In addition, it contains a valuable summary of what is known about ozone, and by indicating problems which remain to be solved should also serve to promote investigation.”
