Abstract
MR. ROSS may be congratulated on having written a book singularly unlike most sober scientific treatises. He has been continually on the track of new things, and even the frontispiece, purporting to portray photographically a mitotic figure induced in a large lymphocyte, seems to have been inserted in order to embody a fresh discovery made after the rest of the book had gone to press, though whether others will attach the same significance to the photograph that Mr. Ross himself appears to do, the future will doubtless decide.
