Burton-Opitz's Physiology 



With a full realization of the importance of physiology 

 in modern medicine and surgery Dr. Burton-Opitz has 

 produced a textbook of physiology which stresses the 

 application of the science in bedside medicine. There 

 are six features that stand out perhaps above the others: 



1. — The logical manner in which the subject matter is arranged, the differ- 

 ent facts following one another in orderly sequence and gradually lead- 

 ing to the principal truth. 



2. — Brevity and simplicity, making easy of comprehension those subjects 

 which have always been stumbhng blocks to the student. 



3. — The illustrations — numerous outline sketches, because nothing is more 

 to the point than a simple diagram. 



4. — A thorough summary of today's physiologic literature, making the 

 work reflect the present knowledge in physiologic fields. 



5. — The strong emphasis given the physical aspects of physiology, es- 

 pecially circulation, respiration, electrophysiology of muscle and nerve, 

 the sense organs, and the mechanism of digestion and animal heat. 



6. — The inclusion of many brief clinical references, tending not only to in- 

 ject interest, but to give the study a truly practical value.
