Excerpt from A Text Book of Organic Chemistry AN attempt is here made to present the fundamental principles of organic chemistry for the use of those begin ning the subject. The most radical departure from the method of treatment adopted in other books treating of the same subject, consists in the dropping of the division into fatty and aromatic compounds, and in the adop tion of what appears to the author a more fundamental and logical classification. This novelty of arrangement will, it is hoped, be found to be justified, partly by the fact that so many connecting links are now known between the two classes of bodies that they no longer stand isolated from each other; and further it is believed that the new method of treatment brings out the important contrasts in chemical conduct for the two series fully as well as the old. One of the most serious difficulties in presenting this subject lies in the overwhelming and ever increasing mass of material at our disposal. It is no longer possible, within a reasonable compass, to present all classes of compounds even, and important compounds of a given class must often be omitted. No two authors would make the same selection, and' that here given is doubtless open to just Criticism at some points.
