An Introdzcction to Ion Exchange, price 50 sh., $6.00
by R. PATTERSON,
Heyden,
London,
1970, 105 pp.,
This introductory paper back volume embraces a vast topic in seven chapters and one thermodynamic appendix. Each chapter, except the first, carries some journal or book reference support. For a 1970 production item, very few of these references are as recent as might be expected. The introductory chapter summarises some of the basic terminology of ion exchange. The next chapter gives a good account of the various types of orthodox ion-exchanger materials, However, the macroreticular ion exchangers are not mentioned. Chapter three deals with the Donnan membrane potential, selectivity and distribution coefficients, and the importance of resin swelling, while the kinetic aspects of ion exchange follow in chapter four. The fifth chapter largely features the electrical properties of ion-exchanger membranes. Column techniques and the “new” inorganic ion exchangers are outlined in the final two chapters. This well produced book offers a substantial introduction to ion exchange and can. be thoroughly recommended, but the price for a short paper back is too high. .

Column Chromatography, edited by E. KOVATS, Sauerlander AG, Aarau, 1970, 285 pp., price SW. Fr. 56.00. This supplement to Chimia (Aarazl) contains all the papers presented at a symposium held in Lausanne in rgGg under the auspices of GAMS, together with the subsequent discussions. Teoria y Practica de la CltromatograJia en Fast Gascosa, by L. GASCO, Ediciones J .E.N., Madrid, 1970, 549 pp., price 715 pesetas. This comprehensive text on gas chromatography is perhaps the first to be published in Spanish. It appears to give adequate coverage ,of.all significant aspects of the technique and is up to date. J.
