Abstract
THIS booklet is the first of a series of memoirs to be issued by the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, and is the outcome of the malaria expedition sent out by that body to Sierra Leone. It deals with measures of prevention suggested by observations made on the spot in a malarious country and with the light of modern theory as to the cause of the disease. There are two drawings of the innocent and noxious mosquito which cannot help but impress the imagination of the reader. The idea of alertness and viciousness suggested by the attitude of the latter should make the most careless observer interested in noting which genus of mosquito it is that infects his neighbourhood.
