Abstract
IT is seldom that a medical book of such inferior quality has been issued from the press, and the fact that it has found any purchasers is a striking proof how- a catching title and an attractive exterior can still mislead the public. Anyone even slightly acquainted with the subject will at once perceive that the writer, whilst professing to teach massage, has not mastered the first principles of the treatment. His modest refusal to accept the office of “high priest of massage” has, indeed, complete justification.
Massage and Allied Methods of Treatment.
