PREFACE TO THE FIFTH EDlTlON

throughout the revision of this book. We are grateful to Thames Polytechnic
for its continued support and enthusiasm in Our work and particularly to the
School of Chemistry in which we have al1 spent many years. Needless to Say,
we owe a great debt to Our wives who have once again encouraged, assisted
and tolerated us over the many months spent discussing, writing, revising,
checking and proof-reading this edition. We hope that along with us they will
feel that the final result more than justifies the efforts that have been put into
it and that we have produced a book which will continue to be of substantial
value in the teaching and application of analytical chemistry.
