Abstract
WE have received the 1934 edition of the official handbook of the British Health Resorts Association, edited by Dr. R. Fortesque Fox (“British Spas, Inland and Seaside Resorts”. London: Messrs. J. and A. Churchill. Is. Od. net). The book has expanded and contains several new features. The section on spa treatment and particulars of British spas has been extended and health attractions of New Zealand, South Africa and Canada are detailed. Full information is also given respecting seaside resorts, and of the medical values of some of them as winter resorts for convalescents and delicate persons, and a full guide to hotels, hydros, etc., is included. The Minister of Health, Sir E. Hilton Young, contributes a foreword.
