This small volume, coming from two able and experienced workers in the field, is most timely because of the great interest at present in industrial toxicology. The book is divided into three parts, devoted to (1) pathology and diagnosis, (2) treatment and prevention and (3) an extensive bibliography. The subject matter is concisely presented and covers the ordinary material encountered in a great variety of industrial pursuits. Some of the newer developments, mostly restricted information, are not contained in this volume; in subsequent editions, when the material is reclassified, it will no doubt be mentioned.

Several of the industrial firms are also contemplating extensive developments, so that they will be able to examine new compounds
