Phladelphia, Boericke & Tafel, 1912, 8°, VIII, 627 pp., 627 pp., 63 Holzstiche, 2 farb. Tafel, orig. Leinenband. First Edition! "The general practitioner does not examine urine as much as he would were it not for certain practical difficulties encountered in making the tests. It is the aim of this book to show in plain language…how to overcome these various difficulties, as well as to give the usual information afforded by the numerous authorities. Such information without carefully described particulars is of no avail to the busy doctor, and the author, therefore, strives to supply these much-desired particulars by minuteness of detail. By means of a series of "Laboratory Notes'' running through the text the doctor is informed of the many perplexities, difficulties, and fallacies he is likely to encounter in the performance of the tests, and is advised how to overcome them. The requirements of modern medicine demand an entirely new book, hence the author has not attempted any revision of his older books. A feature which it is hoped will be appreciated by those who may wish to test their knowledge is a synopsis of the contents of each chapter, printed at the beginning of the chapter. Such synopsis is, in the author's opinion, preferable to the stereotyped list of quiz questions. A relatively large amount of space has been devoted to the subject of diagnosis by the urine, and it is the aim of the author to provide a large fund of information on this important branch of clinical medicine, suited to the wants not merely of the student of medicine, but of practitioners, surgeons, and even specialists in the various departments. The author desires to express his obligations and thanks to Dr. G. G. Starkey, of Chicago, for aid in revising the manuscript." Preface, Clifford Mitchell, M. D., 140 N. State St., Chicago, January 1, 1912. Clifford Mitchell, A. B., M. D. (1854-1939), Chicago, Ill. Professor of Chemistry, Clinical Urinology and Renal Diseases / Hahnemann Medical College Chicago, Ill.
