Abstract
THE war has brought into touch with directly practical problems many whose interests, before its outbreak, lay in fields of investigation which were popularly regarded as purely academic and remote from contact with everyday needs. In no department of research has the value of “pure” science been more finely vindicated than in that of physiology; and the gain to both physiology and practical medicine from this closer alliance of theory and application has been the subject of general remark. There could scarcely be a better example of this recent tendency than Prof. Bayliss's book on the treatment of “wound shock,” which embodies, with much added detail and illustration, the substance of his Oliver-Sharpey lectures, delivered before the Royal College of Physicians in 1918.
