Conversations on Chemistry (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Conversations on Chemistry: In Which the Elements of That Science Are Familiarly Explained and Illustrated by Experiments and PlatesIt will, no doubt, be observed, that in the course of these conversations, remarks are often introduced, which appear much too acute for the young pupils, by whom they are suppo sed to be made. Of this fault the author is fully aware. But in order to avoid it, it would have been necessary either to omit a variety of useful illustrations, or to submit to such mi nute explanations and frequent repetitions, as would have ren dered the work much less suited to its purpose.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
