1889M2688Berlin:: August Hirschwald 1889. 1889. 243 x 171 mm. 8vo. XIII 1 390 pp. 1 photographic plate 133 figures index. Quarter black leather leather corners marbled boards raised bands gilt spine; spine and extremities well worn joint reinforced with kozo. Good. Written for students this is the author's chief work on pathological histology. "This is an excellent work by a thoroughly competent observer. As implied by its name it is intended as an introduction to the study of pathological histology and this intention is well carried out; but this does not prevent its containing a large amount of information of great value to the advanced student of this science. The explanations of the various most approved methods of hardening cutting and mounting microscopical preparations – the technique as it is called – are concise and yet complete while the abundant illustrations are beyond all praise. The work is a valuable addition to the literature of pathological histology." – F.P.H. for: The International Journal of the Medical Sciences New Ser. volume 98 1889 p. 602.
