literature  independent  of  any  other  French  dictionary."  The  book 
contains  over  32,000  entries  and  covers  the  entire  chemical  field,  as 
well  as  much  that  is  pharmaceutical,  medical  and  botanical.  Also, 
all  common  general  words  which  are  likely  to  appear  in  scientific 
literature  are  defined.  There  is  included  a  general  statement  cover- 
ing the  conjugation  of  French  verbs  and  a  series  of  notes  intended  to 
assist  in  the  use  of  the  vocabulary.  In  short,  the  general  scheme  is 
such  that  the.  book  should  be  available  even  to  those  least  familiar 
with  the  French  language.  While  the  book  is  intended  primarily  for 
the  translation  of  French  chemical  literature,  it  should  prove  of 
service  in  the  translation  of  pharmaceutical  literature  as  well.
