“Such a work as this is really NECESSARY for the busy practitioner. The field of medicine is so wide that even the best informed may at the moment miss the salient points in diagnosis . . . he needs to refresh and revise his knowledge, and to focus his mind on those things which are ESSENTIAL. We can speak HIGHLY of Dr. Aitchison’s Handbook. . . . Honestly Executed. No mere compilation, the scientific spirit and standard maintained throughout put it on a higher plane. . . . Excellently got up, handy and portable, and well adapted for READY REFERENCE.”—The Lancet.
“As a means of ready reference, MOST COMPLETE. The busy practitioner will often turn to its pages.”—Journ. of the American Med. Association.
