Excerpt from The Principles of Inorganic ChemistryThe task which hereby presented itself was so to incorporate the new notions and theories of scientific chemistry in the course of instruction that the student would, from the beginning, be made acquainted with the improved views instead of having first to learn the older, untenable notions, only to find out later that these must be abandoned. It was therefore necessary to alter considerably the fundamental form which is at present found, with slight modification, in the present text-books. I have endeavoured to do this only to such an extent as appeared to be demanded by the object in view, and have retained as much as was possible of the approved forms. If in this respect I have been too radical in my procedure for the feelings of some of my colleagues, it should be remembered that new cloth in old garments will not suffice here. On the contrary, a connected whole can be produced only when it is formed in its entirety by one mind and executed according to one plan.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
