Abstract
TO add to the already numerous text-books on physiology is presumably to have the conviction that one is supplying what is lacking in those already in existence. The striking thing about Prof. Burton-Opitz's “Physiology” is that its author makes no such claim. In the first edition of a new book a claim for being really up-to-date would perhaps have been its best for recognition at a time when even some of the better-known books are somewhat delinquent in this respect.
