Abstract
THE little book before us consists of two parts'the first, chemical.; the. second, what the author calls microbiological. . The term micro-biological is an accurate one, and includes the usual bacteriological work on the one hand, and the examination of blood corpuscles and the morphological elements of the secretions on the other. Any system of classification—and one must have some—has its disadvantages: the present one seems to work very well.
