“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.
