This book is an excellent conservative statement of modern treatment in internal medicine. It is interesting to compare British and American practice and to find almost complete correspondence, certainly as to fundamentals. Two minor criticisms may be made: First, some prescriptions are given in metric units and others in apothecaries' units; second, some space is perhaps used to little advantage in brief discussions of treatment of rare or relatively unimportant conditions.
