The Common Bacterial Infections of the Digestive Tract

And the Intoxications arising from Them

Cloth, 8vo, 360 pages, $1.50 by mail, $1.63

“The methods of investigating the digestive tract outlined in this volume will prove valuable to the practitioner who would determine the presence of abnormal bacterial processes before the onset of the clinical signs of incurable or highly refractory states of intoxication—and this is the all-sufficient raison d’être for the book. Considerable stress has been laid by the author on methods developed in his laboratory, in the belief that their painstaking application will furnish practitioners with reliable indications as to the progress of many cases of infection of the digestive tract.”—Merck’s Archives.

“A very scholarly volume, primarily intended for physicians and students, yet, because of its grave importance and because the subject it treats of is of vital interest to all intelligent readers, we are quite certain the book will be appreciated and read in a far wider circle than its title, which is rather ‘professional sounding,’ might warrant. We call the reader’s attention especially to the last chapter in the book, in which there is expounded much valuable material of common interest.”—Times.

On Infantilism from Chronic Intestinal Infection

Cloth, 12mo, 240 pages, 90 cents by mail, $1.02

“Dr. Herter’s book is bound to have the effect of broadening our conception of the subject of infectious diseases of the intestine, and deserves a wide reading.”—George C. Whipple.

Introduction to General Science

By PERCY E. ROWELL, B.Sc.

Cloth 12mo 302 pages $.75

The increasing demand for a thorough, comprehensible, and practical textbook on the subject is met by Rowell’s “Introduction to General Science,” the distinctive features of which are:

1. The book gives a broad, adequate view of the general field of science. The elements of physics and chemistry receive particular emphasis, but biology, physiography, and several phases of applied science are duly considered.

2. Despite the necessity for treating various sciences, the book is remarkable for its continuity of thought. The interrelation of scientific facts is constantly and clearly pointed out.

3. The treatment is clear-cut, brisk, and thorough, the material well chosen and up to date, while the general workmanship of the book renders it attractive and serviceable.

4. There are over 90 laboratory exercises in the book, a number of them entirely new, and all of them illustrative of the text.

5. Reference reading is encouraged, and lists of carefully selected standard reference books are suggested. Those teachers, however, who do not care to take up detailed work of this sort may give a satisfactory course by using in connection with the book United States Government bulletins alone, to which definite reference is made in the lists of reference readings throughout the book.

TEACHERS

call the book “thorough,” “practical,” “comprehensive,” “clear,” “satisfactory,” “a great aid to the science teacher.”

Mr. N. P. Lawson of Taunton, Washington, writes:

“I have examined Rowell’s ‘Introduction to General Science’ quite carefully. It wears. The more I use it the better I like it. There is room left for the teacher. He doesn’t have to crowd himself in. This book can hardly fail to inoculate any one with the bulletin habit, in which I am a firm believer. In its encouragement of wide reading and first-hand acquaintance with books through the excellent references given, this compact little volume is an education in itself. If I were with your company I should wish to push this book. I believe in it.”

The Laws of Heredity

By G. ARCHDALL REID, M.B., F.R.S.E.

With a Diagrammatic Representation

By HERBERT HALL TURNER,

Savilian Professor of Astronomy, Oxford

Cloth, 8vo, xi + 548 pages, $5.50 by mail, $5.04

The question of heredity is one of vital concern to every living being, and any light thrown on the subject by scientific investigations and experiments is of momentous interest to the human race. It is therefore of the utmost importance that every one should have some knowledge of the theories advanced by those who believe in the immutability of the laws of heredity, and also how far these have been proven modifiable by environment and education.

The present volume is a discussion of the entire subject, covering a much wider area than the author’s “The Principles of Heredity,” and presenting the facts and arguments in a scholarly and yet clear and non-technical manner; the aim being to make it comprehensible to the general reader, as well as to the scientific investigator.

The First Principles of Heredity

By S. HERBERT

M.D. (Vienna), M.R.C.S. (Eng.), L.R.C.P. (Lond.)

Cloth, 8vo, illustrated, $1.75 by mail, $1.87

This book is the only one of its scope in the English language. It gives a popularly written yet scientific account of all that the average educated reader may desire to know about “Heredity and Kindred Subjects,” without assuming any knowledge of the subject on the reader’s part.

Heredity and Social Progress

By SIMON N. PATTEN, Ph.D., LL.D.

Professor of Political Economy, University of Pennsylvania.

Author of “The New Basis of Civilization,” etc.

Cloth, 12mo, $1.25

“With keen philosophic insight Professor Patten, in this book, probes to the roots of biology and plants there the foundations of economics and other social sciences. It is a bold deduction, wrought out with perfect logic, and shows one common principle active in every advance from the lowest unicellular organism to the highest social institution.”—Annals American Academy.

“It is a book rich in suggestion and presents the subject in a clear and sometimes rather startling manner.”—Ohio Farmer.

Conduct and its Disorders Biologically Considered

By CHARLES ARTHUR MERCIER, M.D., F.R.C.P., F.R.C.S.,
Physician for Mental Diseases to Charing Cross Hospital; Author of “A Textbook of Insanity,” “Criminal Responsibility,” etc.

Cloth, 8vo, xxiii + 377 pages, index, $3.23 by mail, $3.42

Although Dr. Mercier’s work on Conduct and its Disorders will be of special service to students of mental disease, the subject is one of such wide interest that other readers, less interested perhaps in its scientific aspects, will find the work full of suggestive information. The author points out that although conduct is what we are all engaged in, from birth to death, and though many departments of conduct are described in many books, there is not in existence, curiously enough, any comprehensive study of conduct as a whole—any general view of the field of human activity. It is this gap that Dr. Mercier has set himself to fill by the present work. The principle on which his exhaustive investigation has been made is the biological principle. He has estimated the various modes and phases of human activity in the light of their value in securing the survival of man in the struggle for existence.

Mendelism

By R. C. PUNNETT, Fellow of Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge; Professor of Biology in the University of Cambridge.

New edition revised and enlarged. Cloth, 12mo, illustrated, $1.25 by mail, $1.38

“By far the best popular account of Mendelism yet published … a model of popular scientific writing, recalling Huxley at his best.… Another master of popular scientific writing has well characterized Punnett’s book as ‘an unsurpassed exposition by an expert investigator.’”—The Dial.

“A substantial contribution from one of the most active laboratories of genetics, presented in a readable and attractive form.”—The Nation.

“As an exposition of Mendelism it is comprehensive, authoritative and clear, and alone in its field.”—Chicago Evening Post.

“The book sets forth the theory of Mendelism with exceptional clearness making it especially valuable for the practical gardener or breeder and the general reader, while it may be used as a textbook in biological courses.”—Springfield Republican.

Confessio Medici

Cloth, 12mo, $1.25

“A number of exquisite and philosophical essays on the medical art in its broadest aspects, apparently pervaded by a realization of what the science of medicine might be and how far it falls short of its ideals.… These essays are delightful to read. They are wise and shrewd, instinct with a knowledge of human nature, with benevolence and with a humility that recognizes its own shortcomings rather than its own attainments.”—Argonaut.

“The book abounds in amiable prejudices stated with candour and argued with ingenuity. It is written in many moods, sentimental, practical, reflective, and pugnacious, and in a style that is brisk, sententious, always readable.”—The Bookman.

The Conquest of Nerves

By J. W. COURTNEY. M.D.

Cloth, gilt top, 12mo, viii + 209 pages, index, $1.25 by mail, $1.33

“After reading many half-baked books on psychotherapy and New Thought, it is refreshing to come upon ‘The Conquest of Nerves,’ by a man who knows his subject and speaks with authority backed by common sense, thinking clearly through a hazy theme and shedding truth with entertaining pungency.”—Boston Traveler.

“The book is simple, earnest, and practical.”—Christian Register.

“That nerves can be conquered and how they may be is the subject of the doctor’s most unusual and interesting volume, which should find a royal welcome from the many sufferers for whom it was written.”—Hartford Sunday Post.
