138 JOURNAL OF THE SOCIETY OF COSMETIC CHEMISTS OILS, DETERGENTS AND MAINTE- NANCE SPECIALTIES, VOLUME II-- FORMULARY. Benjamin Levitt. Chemical Publishing Company, Inc., New York. 1967. 259 pages. $13.75. This book is a collection of for- mulations covering a wide variety of household and maintenance special- ties. The emphasis of this book is on the composition of various aerosols, cleansers for household and industry use, bactericides, floor care items, pesticides, etc. Needless to say, a collection of formulations, generally supplied by raw material manufac- turers, would be of interest only to the neophyte in any given product de- velopment area. The cosmetic chem- ist will find little of use in this par- ticular volume, although it covers some personal products. A review of a book of this type is almost impossible without actually preparing some of these formulations and ascertaining their merits. As is common in volrunes of this type, use of some of the raw materials included may be attended by considerable hazard to the consumer. For ex- ample, no comment is made concern- ing photosensitization by bithionol, although the author fortunately in- cludes a comment about similar sensitization by tetrachlorsalicyl- anilide. This formulary includes a variety of topical preparations, all of which are readily available in sup- pliers' promotional literature or in recognized compendia such as the U.S. Pharmacopeia. Despite its limited scientific merit, laymen and some professionals will undoubtedly find something of prac- tical interest in this volume. How- ever, this reviewer could not recom- mend addition of this book to the per- sonal library of practicing cosmetic chemists.--M. M. RIEGER, Warner- Lambert Pharmaceutical Company. LIPID CHROMATOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS, edited by G. V. Marinetti. Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York. 1967. 537pages. PriceS23.50. This is the first of two volumes aimed at bringing together all of the important modern methods for sep- aration and clinical analysis of com- plex lipids. It is aimed at those actively engaged in research and is authored by experts who pioneered in developing the techniques. The first four chapters are devoted to the polar lipids (phosphatides and glycolipids). The next three chap- ters are concerned with the neutral glycerides. One chapter is devoted to alkoxylipids and the remaining six chapters are concerned with the analysis of component parts of com- plex lipid structures. In this very rapidly advancing field a book such as this is most wel- come, especially in view of the fact that literature references quoted are very much up to date. In addition to general information concerning the principles involved in the various separation procedures, practical in- formation is given on specific tech- niques and precautions and pitfalls are pointed out. This book should prove very useful to those engaged in lipid researeh.--PAuL FINKELSTEIN, Gillette Research Institute.
