 Public Analysts ; Chief Chemist, Board of Health, of Brooklyn, N. Y., etc. 



Illustrated 12mo. Cloth, $2.5O. 



This book, written especially for students and physicians, aims to be a text-book 

 for the one and a work of reference for the other. It is practical and concise, dealing 

 only with those parts of chemistry pertaining to medicine ; no time being wasted in 

 long descriptions of substances and theories of interest only to the advanced chemi- 

 cal student. 



PART I Treats of Light, Heat and Electricity, which are described at some length, and explanations made 

 and applied to common phenomena. In the subject of light, only so much is given as will explain the theory 

 and use of the spectroscope. In electricity, the principal aim has been to give such information as is needed 

 for the proper understanding, working and care of the medical battery. 



PART II Theoretical Chemistry. Only such portions of the well established principles of modern chemistry 

 as are necessary to an understanding of the subject are given. It has been deemed best to present all these 

 elementary parts first, that the student may be better able to study any set of isolated facts. These theories 

 are presented in a concise, clear way, in a logical order and in a manner which the author has found specially 

 successful in an experience of over twelve years of teaching. 



PART III Treats of the natural history of the elements, of their principal compounds, with their physiological 

 action and toxicology. 



PART IV Organic bodies commonly used in medicine and pharmacy. The principal organic substances 

 derived from animal life are given a place. In the appendix will be found analyses of the principal secretions 

 and tissues, tables of solubilities and of specific gravities, the metric system, and other useful information. 



Applied Medical Chemistry. 



Containing a description of the apparatus and methods employed in the practice 

 of Medical Chemistry, the Chemistry of Poisons, Physiological and Pathological 

 Analysis, Urinary and Fecal Analysis, Sanitary Chemistry and the Examination of 

 Medicinal Agents, Foods, etc. 



BY LAWRENCE WOLFF, M.D., 



Demonstrator of Chemistry in the Jefferson Medical College ; Member of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy 

 and of the Chemical Section of the Franklin Institute, etc. 



Octavo, Cloth, $1 5O. 



VThe object 01 the author of this book is to furnish the practitioner and student 

 a reliable and simple guide for making analyses and examinations of the various 

 medicinal agents, human excretions, secretions, etc., without elaborate apparatus or 

 expensive processes. 



Practical and Analytical Chemistry. 



Being a complete course in Chemical Analysis, for pharmaceutical and medical 

 students.
