Excerpt from Practical Clinical Laboratory Diagnosis: A Thoroughly Illustrated Laboratory Guide, Embodying the Interpretation of Laboratory, Findings, Designed for the Use of Students, and Practitioners of Medicine Several years of teaching Clinical Laboratory Diag nosis, making laboratory examinations and often interpret ing the findings, has forcibly impressed us with the need of such a book as this is intended to be. We take up only those laboratory examinations that are useful in ordinary, every-day practice and do not include tests that are seldom used or that are practical only for special laborato'ry workers. Our plan throughout the book is to give only one method of making a test or examination. We select what we con sider the best, simplest, most practical method of making each test and do not sacrifice space or clearness by giving several tests or methods for obtaining the same information. All apparatus employed are specified, usually illustrated, and when thought to be advantageous, a source of supply considered reliable is given. Reagents are all specified, the formulae given, and an economical and practical source of supply is stated when thought advantageous.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
