The Leucocyte in Health and Disease: Being an Enquiry into certain Phases of Leucocytic Activity

Abstract

THE sub-title of the volume under notice gives the more accurate idea of its contents, for it deals almost entirely with the author's own researches during the last seven or eight years. Since MetchnikorFs views on phagocytosis aroused such wide interest, much study has been devoted to the functions of the white blood corpuscles and the part they play in resisting disease. Most of such experiments are naturally done outside the body, and it is difficult to know how far the observed facts are valid under more natural conditions.

The Leucocyte in Health and Disease: Being an Enquiry into certain Phases of Leucocytic Activity.

By C. J. Bond. Pp. viii + 84 + 24 plates. (London: H. K. Lewis and Co., Ltd., 1924.) 12s. 6d. net.
