Abstract
THE official responsibility for the safeguarding of the public health rests mainly with the representatives of four professions, viz. the medical officer, with his colleague the sanitary inspector, the bacteriologist, the engineer, and the chemist. A study of the volumes under review has strengthened the belief that it is desirable that members of each profession, while working cordially together for a common end, should severally recognise their respective limitations.
