The Common Bacterial Infections of the Digestive Tract
_And the Intoxications arising from Them_
_Cloth, 8vo, 360 pages, $1.50_ _by mail, $1.63_
“The methods of investigating the digestive tract outlined in this volume
will prove valuable to the practitioner who would determine the presence
of abnormal bacterial processes before the onset of the clinical signs of
incurable or highly refractory states of intoxication--and this is the
all-sufficient _raison d’être_ for the book. Considerable stress has been
laid by the author on methods developed in his laboratory, in the belief
that their painstaking application will furnish practitioners with
reliable indications as to the progress of many cases of infection of the
digestive tract.”--_Merck’s Archives._
“A very scholarly volume, primarily intended for physicians and students,
yet, because of its grave importance and because the subject it treats of
is of vital interest to all intelligent readers, we are quite certain the
book will be appreciated and read in a far wider circle than its title,
which is rather ‘professional sounding,’ might warrant. We call the
reader’s attention especially to the last chapter in the book, in which
there is expounded much valuable material of common interest.”--_Times._
On Infantilism from Chronic Intestinal Infection
_Cloth, 12mo, 240 pages, 90 cents_ _by mail, $1.02_
“Dr. Herter’s book is bound to have the effect of broadening our
conception of the subject of infectious diseases of the intestine, and
deserves a wide reading.”--_George C. Whipple._

Introduction to General Science
BY PERCY E. ROWELL, B.SC.
_Cloth 12mo 302 pages $.75_
The increasing demand for a thorough, comprehensible, and practical
textbook on the subject is met by Rowell’s “Introduction to General
Science,” the distinctive features of which are:
1. The book gives a broad, adequate view of the general field of science.
The elements of physics and chemistry receive particular emphasis, but
biology, physiography, and several phases of applied science are duly
considered.
Public-domain text, read in full here on John Shaqi.
