Abstract
IF the history of medicine in other countries is so full of human interest as Scottish medical history is shown to be in this work, we can understand its fascination. The appeal is not merely medical but also covers the whole range of the allied sciences. Moreover, a nation's medical history is so intimately associated with that of its people and its progress, that laymen, as well as physicians and men of science, will find instruction and enjoyment in these volumes of Scottish medical history.
