"A hearty welcome will be accorded this compact guide, not only because

 and to depend upon it as a basis for administrative action. ... To all engaged 

 in the administration of the public health . . . the book may be cordially 

 commended." — Birmingham Daily Post 



The Chemical Examination of Water, Sewage, Foods and other

 Blackpool and Wallasey. Demy 8vo. gs net. 



T^his book is intended for the use of students who are attending courses 

 of instruction for diplomas and degrees in Public Health, and for those who 

 are studying the chemistry of water, sewage, sewage effluents, foods, dis- 

 infectants, etc. during their ordinary laboratory practice. It will probably 

 be also useful to those who are engaged as public analysts or in public health 

 matters generally. It does not give an exhaustive account of all the available 

 methods of examination, but it describes those which have been used and 

 tested by the authors both in laboratory instruction and in the daily work 

 of a public analyst. 



A prospectus of the series, giving a list of volumes in preparation, 

 will be sent on application.
