The book has interest not only for the medical historian but for all persons who are interested in the literary and artistic portrayal of the medical scene. Especially fascinating is the opening essay by Dr. Harvey Cushing, which deals with Ercole Lelli. The book is beautifully printed in the same style as the previous volumes. The complete collection of the Proceedings of the Charaka Club is now a most valuable contribution to medical history.
