Abstract
A LARGE amount of information is contained in this small book, which is well planned and very readable. Bacteriological technique is described in the earlier sections: preparation and sterilisation of culture media, the use of the microscope, and staining methods and cultivation. A series of exercises then follows, each dealing with some particular subject or process, and so arranged that the student becomes familiar by easy stages with bacteriological methods.
