Abstract
THE role of the gene in the etiology of human defect and derangement is now widely recognized. In the medical curriculum a place for a course of instruction in genetics has been found. The dramatic discovery of the genetic nature of congenital hæmolytic disease has aroused among practitioners of medicine a keen desire to know more about this science, and they are asking for books which will give them the information and the guidance which they seek.
