The development which has taken place in organic chemistry since this book was published has made it necessary to prepare a new edition. This development has been marked on both the theoretical and the practical sides of the subject. While the advances in the pure science have been largely of such a character that they should not be included in an elementary textbook, the development of industrial organic chemistry has tended to vitalize the subject and to arouse the interest of the beginner As the result of the recent war there was an increased demand for a large number of organic compounds of industrial importance.
