An Introduction to Chemical Crystallography (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from An Introduction to Chemical Crystallography

IN 1888 Dr. F ock published the little treatise entitled Einleitung in die chemische Krystallogmphie, in which be summarised the results of recent investigation and the views deduced from them on the subject of crystal growth in its relation to some chemical problems: and in the present small volume this admirable summary has been enlarged by additions necessitated by the advances made in this important subject since 1888. The form of brief chapters into which the discussion is thrown, chapters each devoted to the exposition of a single idea, invests Dr. F ock's little book with a singularly readable character, and its translation by Mr. Pope will have brought it within the reach of University and other students, to the majority of whom its original German dress would present considerable, if not insuperable, difficulties.
