Abstract
IN the present edition of this laboratory manual the arrangement and method of treatment adopted in previous editions have been retained, while the subject-matter is also largely the same as that in the edition reviewed in NATURE of March 25, 1915. Two additions have been made—a simple experimental arrangement for demonstrating cell-respiration, which was devised by Dr. Drew, is described, and a section has been added on the balance between acids and bases in the organism. In the latter a brief account is given of the elementary facts of the physical chemistry of acids and bases, and simple experiments by which they can be verified are described.
