genic characteristics of the diphtheria bacillus and the organisms which resemble it, and their 
relationship to one another ; the distribution of the diphtheria bacillus and organisms resembling 
it in men and animals ; the occurrence of diphtheria and diseases simulating it in man and 
animals and the relationship of the latter to diphtheria ; the modes of infection and the methods 
of prevention ; the practical and theoretical considerations involved in the manufacture of toxins 
and antitoxins and the results of antitoxin treatment.

and those engaged in practical medico-legal work, but also to those interested in the complex 
problems of immunity.

he regarded as the proper man to deal with this subject, and constitutes a work which must 
necessarily rank as the standard authority on the precipitins of blood serum.”

LANCET .—“That a translation of Professor Metchnikoff’s valuable and fascinating book on 
Immunity should be made was most desirable, we might almost say indispensable, and those who 
may have been deterred from studying the original owing to its being in a foreign tongue will be 
grateful to Mr Binnie for the work which he has done....The book is most interesting reading.... 
Study of it is indispensable to all who are specially interested in the subject of Immunity.”
