The recent opportunity offered to the dyestuff industry in this country may be expected to lead to a greater interest in the chemistry of dyestuifs and a greater demand for chemists possessing special knowledge of colouring matters. To the dyer, a scientific knowledge of dyestuffs is always very useful, and to the dyer's chemist it is indispensable.

It is necessary, however, that a thorough and systematic study of pure chemistry should precede any attempt to master a branch of applied chemistry, and we have presumed some such preparation by the student for whom this book is written. Although not specially intended to cover the syllabus for the City and Guilds of London Institute's examinations it provides the requisite knowledge in compact form.

The scheme of treatment adopted being on elementary text-book lines, we have made no attempt to give references to original papers and patents. This would have involved considerable extra cost, and moreover such references are usually neglected by students in a first study of the subject, in our opinion wisely so. In a second reading, however, works of reference should not be neglected, and the type of additional reading recommended in the first place is intermediate between text-book and descriptions of original research, namely, a resume on some special section of subject matter. In addition, current literature must be consulted for new work and abstracts of new patents. It is only in this way that one can maintain contact with an industry developing with such extreme rapidity as the synthetic dyestutf industry has done hitherto. In any case, certain kinds of knowledge are most difficult to acquire, especially information as to the plant actually in use for large scale manufacture. So far as the limits of the book have allowed, we have endeavoured to assist the student in grasping the methods of large scale manufacture.

The second edition of this book follows so closely after the first that practically nothing has been altered. The activity of dyestuff manufacturers outside Germany has been directed mainly towards increasing the output of those dyestuffs most necessary to dependent industries. New names are being given to dyes previously manufactured in Germany, but no special introduction of new dyes has taken place since the first edition was printed.

The second combination included the firms of Cassella, Meister &c. and Kalle. For the purpose of further strengthening the German industry, these two trusts and the firm of Weiler-t.-Meer formed a new syndicate in 1916, with a capital of over £11,000,000.
