Excerpt from Wöhler's Outlines of Organic ChemistryIn presenting this book to the American scientific public, I need only, as an excuse, refer to the success which it has met in Germany, as indicated by the appearance of eight editions in rapid sequence.The grounds of its success may, in part, be looked for in the fact that it is adapted as well to the use of beginners as to that of those advanced in the science. The beginner will find a simple principle of classification, carefully carried out, eminently fitted to his first object of obtaining a general view of the subject; the advanced will find it exceedingly rich in statements of facts with which he has constantly to deal.The year that has elapsed since the appearance of the last German edition, with its quota of investigations in this branch of science, has caused the necessity of a revision in order that the work might he equal to its avowed object. The additions and corrections have been made as nearly as possible in the spirit of the original, with the view merely of rendering the book a representative of the science at the date of publication.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
