Excerpt from Principles of Chemistry This book has grown out of the need for a text-book for the course in General Chemistry and Qualitative Analysis in the University of California. There are, it is true, many excellent texts in existence, but whenever an instructor uses a text written by some one else he faces the dilemma that a departure from the order and manner of presentation of the printed text results in the loss of much of its value to the student, whereas a close adherence to it, on the other hand, interferes with the freedom and individuality, and hence with the enthusiasm and effectiveness of the teacher. Nor can the instructor altogether avoid this dilemma by writing his own book, as probably every one is tempted to do, for the use of any text tends to end the period of experimentation upon the class, and to substitute, therefor, year after year of complacent stereotyped repetition.
