Abstract
A GREAT deal has been said previously as to the general excellence of the methods and apparatus developed in connection with the “respiratory calorimeter” now in use in the Nutrition Laboratory in Boston. That they are original and are carried to a unique degree of perfection, that they have been utilised in the solution of very interesting problems. All this is well known, and will be found frequently dealt with by the authors of the publication referred to below. Gratitude has been freely expressed on these points.
