The Chemistry of Colloids and some Technical Applications

Abstract

THIS work can claim to meet a long-felt want with more justice than the majority of publications heralded by that familiar phrase. Until its appearance it has been necessary to refer students to German text-books, many of which are extremely difficult reading for even fair scholars of that language, while most of them devote considerable space to the discussion of theories of the soundness of which the beginner cannot be, and should not be tempted to imagine himself, a judge.
