Abstract
THE second edition of Prof. Kettle's book is arranged on the plan of the first, with the addition of many new diagrams and some revision of the text, particularly in the section on the general biology of tumours. The substitution of drawings for many of the photographs contained in the previous edition is a welcome improvement, since to the student entering on the study of pathology photographs are rarely satisfactory. The inclusion of a chapter on treatment is unusual in a volume of this type, but it is not altogether out-of-place, and a correlation of pathology and therapeutics enables the student more readily to grasp the general principles of both these branches of medicine.
