Abstract
FOR some time now a small handbook of cytological technique containing the salient facts brought out in recent editions of the “Microtomists Vademecum” has been a possibility. In some ways, Dr. Baker's book fills this gap. What really seems to be wanted, however, is a little book on cytological technique with good illus trations of tissues and cells prepared by a skilled cytologist, with, side by side, illustrations of the same types of tissues and cells in wnich the method has worked unsuccessfully. It is very common nowadays to find that published papers have been written by persons who have not mastered such techniques as Da Fano or Weigl.
