When undertaking to prepare a new edition of this book I received
permission from the authors to "throw it into the form in which you
think it would be most useful at the present time." It was left to
my discretion, "What to use and what to omit." I have not found it
necessary to avail myself to any considerable extent of this latter
permission. But as the contents of the book were originally
arranged the reader was ill-prepared to appreciate the importance
of the later research for want of introductory matter explaining
how it began, and how the early research led up to the later
investigation. I have therefore contributed an entirely new
preliminary chapter which will, I hope, help the reader to realise
the credibility of the results attained when the molecular forms
and constitution of the numerous bodies examined were definitely
observed. I have not attempted to revise the records of the later
research in which I had no personal share, so from the beginning of
Chapter III to the end the book in its present form is simply a
reprint of the original edition
