Chemistry as the means of human emancipation is the subject of this book.

Physics, biology, and psychology are converging towards a scientific synthesis of unprecedented importance whose influence on thought and social custom will be so profound as to mark a stage in human evolution. This book interprets these events and should be read in connexion with _Gallio_, by J. W. N. Sullivan, in this series. =Ikonoclastes=, or the Future of Shakespeare. By HUBERT GRIFFITHS.
