of the important chapters having been practically rewritten. ~The Lancet, London~ "This volume is intended to present the subject of pathology in as practical a form as possible, and more especially from the point of view of the 'clinical pathologist.' These objects have been faithfully carried out, and a valuable text-book is the result.
