Jordan's 

 General Bacteriology 



A Text-Book of General Bacteriology. By EDWIN O. JORDAN, PH.D., 

 Professor of Bacteriology in the University of Chicago and in Rush 

 Medical College. Octavo of 594 pages, illustrated. Cloth, $3.00 net. 



THE NEW (2d) EDITION 



Professor Jordan's work embraces the entire field of bacteriology, the non- 

 pathogenic as well as the pathogenic bacteria being considered, giving greater 

 emphasis, of course, to the latter. There are extensive chapters on methods of 

 studying bacteria, including staining, biochemical tests, cultures, etc.; on the 

 development and composition of bacteria ; on enzymes and fermentation-products; 

 on the bacterial production of pigment, acid and alkali ; and on ptomains and 

 toxins. Especially complete is the presentation of the serum treatment of gonor- 

 rhea, diphtheria, dysentery, and tetanus. The relation of bovine to human 

 tuberculosis and the ocular tuberculin reaction receive extensive consideration. 



This work will also appeal to academic and scientific students. It contains 

 chapters on the bacteriology of plants, milk and milk-products, air, agriculture, 

 water, food preservatives, the processes of leather tanning, tobacco curing, and 

 vinegar making ; the relation of bacteriology to household administration and to 

 sanitary engineering, etc. 



Prof. Severance Burrage, Associate Professor of Sanitary Science, Purdue University. 



" 1 am much impressed with the completeness and accuracy of the book. It certainly 

 covers the ground more completely than any other American book that I have seen."

 THE BEST PUBLISHED 



Professor Buchanan discusses thoroughly all bacteria causing diseases of the 

 domestic animals. He goes minutely into the consideration of immunity, opsonic 

 index, reproduction, sterilization, antiseptics, biochemic tests, culture-media, 

 isolation of cultures, the manufacture of the various toxins, antitoxins, tuberculins, 

 and vaccines that have proved of diagnostic or therapeutic value. Then, in addi- 

 tion to bacteria and protozoa proper, he considers molds, mildews, smuts, rusts, 

 toadstools, puff-balls, and the other fungi pathogenic for animals.

" It is the best in print on the subject. What pleases me most is that it contains all the late 

 results of research. It fills a long felt want."
