The title of this work sufficiently explains the nature of its contents. It is designed as a manual for the student of medicine, an auxiliary to his text-book in physiology, and would be particularly useful as a guide to his laboratory experiments, if he should have occasion to try any.

For instance he may be going to purchase a microscope and to sharpen up a bit on the principles of optics, or he is to write a paper on the relation of presbyopia and procreation, and would like to remember a little something about the physics of the eye. Here in very short space he will find the very facts and principles that he has forgotten.
