Abstract
THE first book before us is the first volume of a system of general and experimental pathology. In an academically written preface of ten pages, the authors explain the object of the book, pointing out the extreme value of comparative experimental pathology in elucidating the prime problems of morbid processes in the human subject. In especial the authors cite the work of Pasteur on silkworm parasites, and that also of Metchnikoff on the effects of irritants upon low forms of life. Equally well might the recent researches upon the causation of malaria have found a mention in this, connection. M. Chantemesse's Russian collaborator, M. Podwyssotsky, has already published in Russian a general experimental pathology covering similar ground to the volume under consideration. The present work, however, is much more extensive, both with regard to the letterpress and figures, and can in no sense be regarded as a translation from the Russian.
