A COMPEND

On Bacteriology Including Animal ParasitesThis little book was designed by the writer to serve the needs of the medical student preparing for examination, and for the practitioner of medicine who desires to acquaint himself with the principle facts of the rapidly growing science of bacteriology. An effort has been made to reduce the subject matter to as concrete a form as possible.While the literature of the subject of immunity is as vast almost as the rest of bacteriology, yet it is hoped that the chapter in this book on immunity gives in outline the essential accepted teachings on the subject.Minute details of cultures and technic are not given. They must be sought for in books on descriptive bacteriology.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
