The Analyst, November, 1895. \ 

 ' Both Mr. Pearmain and Mr. Moor are favourably known for their 

 careful work on various kinds of food and drugs, and their extensive 

 laboratory experience in these subjects is an ample guarantee that the 

 processes they describe are in general trustworthy and of a practical 

 kind. Their information is in most respects well up to date, and many 

 original figures are given.' 



Chemical News, November 15, 1895. 



' This little book at once commends itself to our good wishes by its 

 Preface. . . . The analytical procedures here recommended are trust- 

 worthy, and indicate that the authors are not compilers, but men of 

 experience.' 



The Hospital, January 4, 1896. 



' As at the present time we are not acquainted with any handy work 

 in the English language which covers this particular ground, we are 

 pleased to welcome its appearance, and congratulate the authors on 

 acoomiphshing their work in so convenient and suitable a form.' 



The Chemist and Druggist, November 30, 1895. 

 ' If we were always to judge a book by its size, this volume would 

 not hold high ra,nk, but the small boards enclose a great deal of 

 valuable material, which is chiefly the personal experience of the 

 authors. It is the drug section on which we speak with authority, 

 and we find that on the whole this is well done.' 



The Medical Times and Hospital Gazette, November 2, 1895. 



' . . . The authors have introduced a valuable chapter on the ex- 

 amination of urine, which cannot fail to be useful to the ordinary 

 medical man.' 



The Medical Press, December 11, 1895. 



' ... To Medical Officers of Health and others who contemplate 

 going up for the D.P.H., we know of no other book so well calculated 

 to aid them in simple and practical laboratory work, and to such we 

 heartily recommend it.' 



The Lancet, April 18, 1896. 



' . . . The work before us appears to be, so far as we have examined 

 it, an admirable little digest of the analytical work required at the 

 hands of the public analyst. The processes described have been pro- 

 nounced reliable by well-known analytical practitioners.'
