Abstract
SOME time ago a paper was sent to a certain society for publication; the comment made upon it was: “Whoever undertakes to act as referee will have to do a year's solid work before he sends in a report.” The author of the present review feels much in the same position as the prospective referee. Sir Thomas Lewis has struck right out into new country and very important country. Moreover, it is a matter of great interest that the country is not very far away. There are few parts of the human frame which the doctor can see; with regard to most he has to go on inference. Of the few which he can see, the skin is one.
