Experimental Bacteriology in its Applications to the Diagnosis, Epidemiology and Immunology of Infectious Diseases

Abstract

THE classical German textbook, which enjoyed much popularity under the title “Experi-mentelle Bakteriologie”, has been translated into several languages and now appears for the first time in English. The whole work comprises two large volumes each of more than five hundred pages, and has been edited by Prof. Eyre. It may be stated at once that this has been well done, and that all those interested in bacteriology in its relation to disease, whether from the point of view of student, teacher or investigator, will be grateful to have this German work more easily accessible by reason of its English version.
