Abstract

ALTHOUGH entitled an “Introduction to Physiological Chemistry,” Prof. Bodansky's book contains considerably more material than might have been expected in an introduction to the subject. In fact, the work is suitable for the advanced student of biochemistry, not perhaps for the specialist, but for one who is reading biochemistry in addition to some other scientific subject. The work deals with the theoretical aspect of physiological chemistry only: it contains numerous references to original papers and structural formula; are freely used. Numerous tables are also included which are useful, but seem somewhat out of place in a book which is not meant for a work of reference.

Introduction to Physiological Chemistry.

By Prof. Meyer Bodansky. Pp. vii + 440. (New York: John Wiley and Sons, Inc.; London: Chapman and Hall, Ltd., 1927.) 20s. net.
