Third dimension in chemistry

Most people will probably agree that some knowledge of chemistry should form part of a general education.  A real understanding of structural chemistry calls for some appreciation of the third dimension, and for som time I have had the idea that this aspect of the the subject could profitably be linked up with certain parts of geometry which sometimes receive less attention than they merit.  In this little book I have attempted to express that idea.  Those whose task it is to teach chemistry will be more competent to assess the value of this approach and adapt and develop it to suit particular needs.
