N2  - This comprehensive monograph on rheumatic fever and its complications covers every phase of the disease. Special emphasis is placed on morbid anatomy, especially that of the myocardium and endocardium. There are many excellent photographs of gross and microscopic lesions. There is a well illustrated chapter on rheumatic pneumonitis, and considerable attention is devoted to the complications which may occur in the liver and the pancreas. The author devotes comparatively little space to the hemolytic streptococcus and the work in this country on the biologic and immunologic phenomena which have been noted in connection with streptococcic infection in rheumatic fever. One would expect the descendants of Pasteur to be more bacteriologically minded! Treatment with salicylates, antipyrine, aminopyrine and other antirheumatic agents is discussed in detail. This treatise suffers for lack of a bibliography.
