Excerpt from Theories of SolutionsThe following lectures on Theories of Solutions were given at Yale University in New Haven during the spring of 1911. Before they are sent to press, it is a great privi lege for me to be allowed to use this opportunity of telling President Hadley and the authorities of the University how much I am indebted to them for their great kindness during my very pleasant and instructive Visit to the old University-town of New England. To my distinguished colleagues, Professor B. B. Holtwood and Professor F. A. Gooch, I shall always remain deeply grateful for their never-ceasing kindness and assistance. I shall also keep always in the most agreeable remembrance the members of the Graduates Club, where I lived under ideal condi tions during my stay in New Haven. For the great ser vices which Professor C. O. Johns has so generously given me in correcting my manuscript and looking through the proofs, I render him my kindest thanks.May my dear colleagues and friends in New Haven ev'er keep me in friendly and kind remembrance.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
