Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Chemistry for Launderers Also for Cleaners and Dyers
The serious study of chemistry requires several years of almost devoted attention in order to become even comparatively proficient in the sub ject, especially in analytical chemistry, which in its higher branches is almost an art or a science. Taking all this into account, however, there is no reason whatever why he should not pick up useful scraps of chemical knowledge as he does engineer ing knowledge; and even something more, pro vided always that he bears in mind the fact that they are only scraps and takes care not to fall into the many traps that stand in the path of the man with the little knowledge, proverbially such a dangerous thing.
