N2  - The revision of this excellent work appears to have been a thorough one, especially of the chapters dealing with anaphylaxis, nonspecific serum and cell reactions, and specific therapy. The aim of the work is to present in detail the principles of the biology of infectious diseases, which must be mastered before these diseases can be studied and treated intelligently according to present practice, and this aim is accomplished in an altogether satisfactory way. The discussion of the origin of antibodies should be extended to include the results of the more recent work on this and related problems. That Sternberg was a pioneer in the study of phagocytosis should not be allowed to pass into oblivion. These and other shortcomings, none of which are in any sense of a serious nature, will be remedied easily when quieter days permit a more thorough and leisurely scrutiny of the literature.
