The Vasomotor System in Anoxia and Asphyxia

Some of these are obviously of value only in very special situations, whereas others, although less accurate, are more practical for large-scale survey work. Various clinical tests of interest are described briefly. The final chapter sets forth "some examples of various types of enquiries in a number of countries." The bibliography lists 119 references. An extremely important part of the book is the appendix in which are presented 17 record forms or books found useful for dietary survey work in six countries; also, valuable height-weight reference tables are given. We may conclude this review with the statement that this monograph should be a valuable addition to the library of every worker in this field of nutritional research. GEORGE R. COWGILL.
