ResumoWE have received the eleventh edition of Fowne's Manual of Chemistry. The great popularity of this famous chemical text-book has already necessitated the publication of this edition, although the last was only issued in 1868. Since that time great progress has been made in the science, and we must thank Mr. Watts for having made this edition fully equal to the present educational requirements of chemistry. In order to prevent the increase of the present volume beyond the slightly unwieldy size attained by the last, the editor has somewhat shortened the sections of the work relating to physics. This is by no means to be regretted, as admirable manuals on this subject are now within the reach of all. A Manual of Chemistry, Theoretical and Practical. By George Fownes Eleventh edition, revised and corrected by Henry Watts, B.A., F.R.S. (London: J. and A. Churchill, 1873.)
