he present book is a sequel to the authors Qualitative Analysis and Course of Qualitative Chemical Semi microanalysis. Therefore it does not deal with many theoretical questions which are fully discussed in these books at equal length in a course of quantitative analysis. In all such instances merely a brief mention is made of the relevant principles and results with a reference to the appropriate sections in the textbooks of qualitative analysis. The question of physico-chemical methods of analysis and their place in a course of quantitative analysis is a very serious problem. Only two such methods are considered in detail in the book: colorimetric (visual) and electro gravimetric analysis. Conductometry potentiometry polarography and photocolorimetry are considered only in outline without descriptions of the methods or examples of determinations.
About the Author Vladimir Nikolayevich Alexeyev was born in 1888 and died in 1958 . He started his practical and teaching work in the field of analytical chemistry in 1915. During the many years of his teaching activi- ty he wrote a number of textbooks on analytical chemistry for universities and technical colleges. Besides his Quantitative Analysis the books Qualitative Analysis Course of Qualitative Chemical Semi- microanalysis and Course of Analytical Chemistry are well known.
