The Autonomic Diseases or the Rheumatic Syndrome

As a critical review it is somewhat less satisfactory, for many topics are mentioned but casually or receive but scant attention, a defect clearly unavoidable in the preparation of a text meant primarily to be practical. Nevertheless, it represents a treatment of the subject that will prove most useful. Much could be done to make the index more helpful, and the lack of an index of the many authors cited in the text imposes a limitation in the use of the book for reference purposes. GEO. H. SMITH.
