Edition 



Essentials of Histology — Schafer 



By Sir Edward A. Schafer, M.D., Sc.D., LL.D., F.R.S., Professor of Physiology in 

 the University of Edinburgh ; formerly Jodrell Professor of Physiology in University 

 College, London. Octavo, 577 pages with 720 illustrations. Cloth ^4.50 net. 



This book supplies the student with directions for the microscopic examination of the tissues. At the same 

 time it is intended to serve as an Elementary Text-book of Histology ; comprising the essential facts of the science, 

 but omitting less important details. 



For conveniently accompanying the work of a class of medical students, the book is divided into fifty lessons. 

 Only those methods are recommended upon which experience has proved that dependence can be placed, but the 

 directions given are for the most part easily capable of modification in accordance with the ideas or experience of 

 different teachers. 



The present edition is somewhat larger than the last. It has been completely revised, and many additional 

 illustrations (75) have been added; most of these are photographs of microscopic preparations.

 Edition 



Principles of Human Physiology — Starling 



By Ernest H. Starling, M.D., F.R.S., F.R.C.P., Jodrell Professor of Physiology in 

 University College, London, England. Octavo, 1315 pages with 579 illustrations, 10 

 in colors. Cloth ^7.50 net. 



The British Medical Journal says: " In the third edition the student and medical practitioner will find a full 

 and up-to-date account of the whole subject, clearly written, excellently illustrated and summarized by a practical 

 physiologist of great knowledge and well-known originality. . . . 



"Everywhere Professor Starling writes as a man of science interested primarily in the mechanics and chemistry 

 of physiology, the concrete rather than the abstract,* the practical reactions of the living body rather than the meta- 

 physical conceptions or interpretations to which they may give rise."

Qualitative Chemical Analysis — Bradley 



By Theodore J. Bradley, A.M., B.S., Ph.G., Dean and Professor of Analytical and 

 Organic Chemistry, Massachusetts College of Pharmacy. Octavo, 136 pages. Cloth 

 ^2.50 net. 



Qualitative Analysis is of use to the pharmacist in testing chemicals for identity and purity. The study of the 

 subject is also of value because of the practical knowledge of chemicals and chemical processes acquired by the student, 

 and because it gives training in careful observation and develops the reasoning powers as they are exercised in the 

 interpretation of results. 



This Manual was prepared as a guide for the author's own classes, and the objects sought are to acquaint the 

 student with the general methods of qualitative analysis and to prepare him to carry out such qualitative tests as the 

 pharmacist may be called upon to make. The course is arranged to include one hour of lecture, one hour of recita- 

 tion and about three hours of laboratory work per week for one school year. Practice on the analysis of unknown 

 solutions is provided for throughout the course. This is important, as it not only increases the interest of the student 

 in the work but also develops his self-reliance by constantly putting him upon his own responsibility in doing his 

 work and in interpreting his results. The introductory section on the theory of chemistry may be omitted if it is not 

 necessary for the class to study or review this part of the subject. 



The Manual is in no sense a reference book, and in general only those things are included that are needed as 

 a guide for the laboratory work, or which may easily be learned in connection with this work.
