This latest revision of a standard textbook of pharmaceutical chemistry, having a record of extensive use in England and parts of the Commonwealth, was necessitated by the 1958 revision of the British Pharmacopeia. It is an impressive work. The material is divided into three parts: Part 1 deals with physical and chemical methods used in determining the purity of pharmaceutical substances; part 2, with inorganic pharmaceuticals; and part 3, with organic pharmaceuticals. The book attempts to be inclusive and features condensed presentations of analytical methods used in the British Pharmacopeia as well as of such varied concepts as nuclear structure and reactions, atomic structure and types of chemical bonds, molecular weight determinations, and optical isomerism. In spite of the inclusion of some relatively simple and basic chemistry, this does not appear to be a suitable text for instruction in pharmaceutical chemistry for students who are not already well grounded in
