Abstract
THE first two chapters are concerned with the morphology of bacteria, and the subject is most ably dealt with, as might be expected from so talented a botanist as Prof. Fischer. Nevertheless, these are not the chapters which strike one as of exceptional interest or importance, because they treat of matters discussed in every text-book of bacteriology, and afford but little new information.
The Structure and Functions of Bacteria.
By Alfred Fischer, Professor of Botany at the University of Leipzig. Translated into English by A. Coppen Jones. Pp. viii + 198. (London: Clarendon Press, 1900.)
