    PREFACE. The re-editing of this volume was begun several years ago by the late Dr Moinet. The first portion was printed off from his revision, and, in view of the probable appearance of a new edition of the British Pharmacopoeia, it has seemed best to the Publisher that this part should be left untouched. The present Editors, therefore, have begun where Dr Moinet left off, and have incorporated the Addenda to the British Pharmacopoeia partly in the text and partly in an Appendix. It is hoped that any confusion which this might give rise to has been obviated by careful indexing. Otherwise, the text and scope of Dr Scoresby-Jackson's original work have been as little interfered with as possible, so as to preserve the distinct individuality of the book. The organic Materia Medica has not been confined to official substances, many preparations recommended by the British Pharmaceutical Conference having been included, as well as all the substances scheduled by the Examining Board of the Pharmaceutical Society. The book will, therefore, it is ex- pected, prove of special value to pharmaceutical students. Mr Hill desires to acknowledge, with thanks, the valuable assistance of Dr Gordon Sharp, of Leeds, in the revision. Thanks are also due to Messrs. William Duncan, J. H. Hoseason, William G. Mackenzie, and J. S. Liversidge, Pharmaceutical Chemists, for assistance. Edinburgh, January 1895.
