PREFACE TO THE SECOND 

 GERMAN EDITION. 



THE friendly manner in which our Outlines have been 

 received confirms us in our views as to the value of a 

 ' ' compendium ' ' in the study of Physiology. And the fact 

 that a second edition is so soon required shows that the 

 book has supplied a need of the students. Hence in the 

 preparation of this edition we have held fast to the plans 

 laid down in the first edition.
