An Introduction To The Chemistry Of Radioactive Substances PDF Download

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Chemistry of Radio-Active Substances In writing this book I have tried to bring before students who are interested in radio-activity tho chief facts concerning tho chemistry of radio-active substances at present known. As far as I am aware there is no book in English on this subject which is reasonably up-to-date. This book is not a monograph in the ordinary sense, and although I have taken pains to collect together the best and most recent data and views on the subject, I have made no attempt to deal with any part of it exhaustively, and I have not thought it necessary to cite authorities and references except for a few statements. A monograph very rightly, I think, should give chapter and verse for every statement of importance, but a book like this one, which does not pretend to do more than give a short account of a large subject, need not. Below are given a list of books which I recommend as primary sources of information on radio-activity and cognate subjects, and from them, merely by consulting their indexes, a reader may speedily be put on the track of tho original papers dealing with any matter on which he requires further information. I wish to express here my indebtedness to the writers of these books in the task of compiling my own. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
