Abstract
PROF. J. N. LANGLEY'S work is a laboratory manual containing full directions for students undergoing a course of practical histology. Though primarily a book of histological methods, a description is given of the appearances which should be found after the instructions regarding each preparation have been carried out, but the volume does not aim at being a descriptive histology, and contains no illustrations beyond those of apparatus. Provision is made for the instruction of both junior and senior students, the large type in general representing the course of practical histology for elementary students in Cambridge. Histological methods vary somewhat in different schools, but whatever the general procedure may be, this volume is full of useful information, and may be turned to in confidence for assistance in the preparation of any histological specimen.
