Excerpt from Photography With Emulsions: A Treatise on the Theory and Practical Working of the Collodion and Gelatine Emulsion Processes
Another Edition of this work has been called for by the Publishers, and, in preparing it, the Author has endeavoured so to rearrange and prune the older matter, and to insert new, as to make it useful to those whose knowledge of chemistry may be limited, as well as to those who are experts in that far-reaching science. Again, there are many who at present care nothing about theory, and who regard practical results as their sole aim. An endeavour has been made to meet their views as well, by, as far as possible, confining all theoretical considerations to those chapters which are marked with double asterisks in the table of Contents. These chapters may be omitted without in any.
