This book, written in a pleasant and authoritative manner, deals systematically with the vitamins along conventional lines. Although the book is well up to date, it must be admitted that little is added to what is already easily available in monographic form. The lengthy table of the vitamin contents of various foods is useful, and the final chapter on clinical applications will appeal to practicing physicians. For the statement on the jacket that "Vitamin deficiency often spells the difference between... catching everything that comes along and enjoying freedom from infection," we trust the author is not responsible.
