A Short History of Cardiology

Abstract

THOSE who know Dr. James B. Herrick of Chicago, and are familiar with his past writings, will unanimously welcome this book from his pen, and will be eager to read it. The book is a small, volume, printed in clear type and on paper of a quality unusual in war-time. Its many excellent illustrations are chiefly portraits, some of them old friends; many more are comparatively rare and will be seen for the first time by most readers.

A Short History of Cardiology

By Prof. James B. Herrick. Pp. xvi + 258. (Springfield, Ill., and Baltimore, Md.: Charles C. Thomas; London: Baillière, Tindall and Cox, 1942.) 3.50 dollars.
