How the determination of the basal metabolic rate helps 

 to diagnose the various types of thyroid disease is dis- 

 cussed by a number of physicians in a forthcoming volume, 

 Basal Metabolism (Sanborn Co., Boston). There are any 

 number of individual articles dealing with basal metab- 

 olism; only a few of these can be mentioned here. See, for 

 example, F. G. Benedict, Journal of the American Medical 

 Association, volume 77, page 247, 1921; J. H. Means, 

 Journal of the American Medical Association, volume 77, 

 page 347, 1921 ; W. M. Boothby, Journal of the American 

 Medical Association, volume 77, page 252, 1921; F. H.

 Marine, and his co-worker Kimball, are widely known for
