Description
For quite a long time a reference book has been needed which would provide the reader with adequate information, both theoretical and practical, on the chemistry and technology of explosives. The objectives of the present book are to fill this gap in the chemical literature.The first edition appeared in Warsaw in Polish in 1953-54. The second, in Czech, was printed in Prague in 1958-59. The third, in German, is being printed in Leipzig. The present fourth edition is a considerably revised and expanded version of the earlier ones.
The chemical, physical and physico-chemical properties of explosives are dealt with, and processes of manufacture are described whenever the substance in question is of practical importance.
The basis of all practical knowledge is in the underlying theory. The scientist working on technological problems in industry should never forget that science, however applied, remains a natural philosophy. This is why particular attention is paid here to the chemical and physico-chemical properties of the substances described in the book, and the author has endeavoured to bring this information up to date, hoping that the wide scope of this information will not obscure the main subject, but will help, instead, to avoid narrow specialization which creates the danger of not seeing the wood for the trees.
