Abstract
IN this small volume the editor has gathered together a series of papers published by himself and his collaborators over more than a decade. The matter has been rearranged to make it suitable for book form. The work is entirely on the humoral aspects of immunity. The first chapter gives an excellent short account of antibody action in general: among the subjects dealt with in the succeeding chapters are the antigenic power of globin, the alterations which occur in hæmolytic immune bodies during the process of immunisation, heterophile antigen and antibody, and complement. The section on the latter contains a certain amount of matter which has not hitherto been published. The work will appeal to those interested as giving in handy form information which is scattered in a number of different volumes.
