✦ Synopsis

of the volume, the elements only of the subject have been presented :n a manner suitable to chemists who have had no special cxperiencc in the field. Only methods which have been well tested and found trustworthy are given as a rule, but in some cases provisional processes have been described as no lvholly satisfactory ones are available. The point of view is rather that oi the public health official and of the (British) Sale of Food and Drugs Acts, than of the n-orkers in any particular branch of food industry. A competent knnwlcdgc of general analytical chemistry and familiarity with the standard instruments of the laboratory are assumed. Microscopy of foods has not been much developed.

The author feels that such phases should be left to special works.

There are a few drawings of microscopic fields, but, as a matter of fact, such, even when most carefully clone, are but poor substitutes for actual experience.
