This extensive work is divided into four parts : i treats of the grand theories 

 of chemistry ; 2, of the metalloids and their chief compounds ; 3. of the 

 metals ; 4, of organic chemistry. The author omits albuminoid sub- 

 stances as belonging to biology rather than chemistry. In the preface 

 the author exhibits characteristic national bias and says: " La chimie 

 scientifique est done dans ses grandes lignes, une science fran9aise. 

 C'est pour le demontrer que le present ouvrage a ete ecrit."
