Principles Of Microbiology.

A thorough examination of this work shows that it has been carefully prepared to meet the needs of the veterinary student, whose field of microbiology is essentially different from that in which the medical student finds his chief interest. The general principles of the science and the laboratory technic are stated clearly and with thoroughness. This section would do equally well for the study of the medical student. The study of the specific organisms is, however, somewhat lacking in detail and naturally the organisms considered are different from those that are of chief importance to the physician. The work is well illustrated.
