Abstract
A PECULIAR value is lent to this book by the fact that its author is not a medical man and that his horizon is therefore not overclouded by the medical applications of his subject. It cannot be said that it has not a certain medical tinge, for Prof. Snyder states with modest pride that he has been concerned in a number of operations for the transfusion of blood; moreover, he has not been able to avoid an excursus into the history of blood transfusion which is interesting but not really germane to his subject. None the less, Prof. Snyder is primarily a biologist and thoroughly competent to deal with the relation of the blood groups to human biology, and this is where their main interest lies.
