here with the desire to add further information to the interesting
chemistry of diamonds and the aim of making larger synthetic diamonds.
It
is the hope that you will enjoy reading it as much as the author has
enjoyed writing it. If you do, he will be more than satisfied.
Much
of the information has been obtained from many sources by reading books
and journals over a period of years, especially from the libraries of
Boston, Harvard and the University of Chicago. The list is too long to
be written here. The principal references are given in the footnotes.
The
author is particularly indebted to Dr. Claude R. Flory who has read the
manuscript and much of the proof. Valued assistance has been rendered
also by Mrs. J. Wil-lard Hershey both in the preparation of the
manuscript and in the proof-reading.
J. Willard Hershey
