Book Description

Excerpt from The Organometallic Compounds of Zinc and Magnesium The progress of Chemistry is so rapid that it is becoming a matter of ever-increasing difficulty to keep abreast of the modern developments of the science. The volume of periodical literature is so enormous that few can hope to read, far loss assimilate, all that is published. The preparation of summaries has therefore become a necessity, and has led to the publication of various well-known journals devoted to the abstraction of original papers. For obvious reasons, however, these do not fully supply the wants of advanced students and research workers, and it is now generally recognised that monographs on special subjects are also needed. This series of monographs is intended primarily for Advanced and Honours students. As each monograph is written by an author with special knowledge of the subject, and copious references are given, it is hoped that the series will prove useful also to those engaged in research.
