Dr. Wells here presents the latest work systematically considering the subject of general pathology from the standpoint of the chemical processes involved. It is written for the physician, for those engaged in research in pathology and physiologic chemistry, and for the medical student. In the introductory chapter are discussed the chemistry and physics of the animal cell, giving the essential facts of ionization, diffusion, osmotic pressure, etc., and the relation of these facts to cellular activities. Special chapters are devoted to Diabetes and to Uric-acid Metabolism and Gout.

“The work fills a real need in the English literature of a very important subject, and I shall be glad to recommend it to my students.”

Unlike most works on pathology, this work treats the subject, not from the professor’s point of view, but from that of the student. The text is admirably elucidated by numerous excellent illustrations, many of them having been especially drawn.
