Abstract
ANY work dealing with the. behaviour of iodine in the body is bound to be mainly an account of the physiology of the thyroid gland. It is chiefly for this that biochemist and clinician alike will consult the book under review. Neither will be disappointed; for the author shows himself to be equally at home in the laboratory and in the ward.
