PREFACE TO VOL. II.
The first seven sections of this volume have been carefully revised, but required no serious alteration. The eighth section required very extensive changes and additions, due to the great progress of Tropical Medicine in the last fourteen years. The Society is much indebted to Dr. Andrew Balfour, C.B., C.M.G., Director-in-Chief of the Wellcome Bureau of Scientific Research, who has very kindly revised and extended the Medical Hints in the light of his wide experience in the Sudan and in the East during the War.
In the instructions for the use of drugs the word “tablet” has been used to denote products compressed in the form usually described by a proprietary word that belongs in law only to the products of a particular firm.
