Excerpt from A Manual of Chemical Physiology Including Its Points of Contact With Pathology The second part of the work is an Analytical Guide for the use of those who desire to make themselves practically acquainted with the phenomena and con stituents of animal bodies. It is therefore not de scriptive in the sense in which ordinary chemical text books may be said to be so, but prescriptive in the style and manner of pharmacopoeias. It directs the student how to proceed in order to arrive at a certain result, leaving him in most cases to appreciate the result of his operation by his own reflection. The guide is perhaps the most elementary that could be written for any practical purpose, and yet I think it improbable that ordinary students of medicine will easily go through the whole of its matter in the laboratory. I hope, therefore, that teachers of chemistry who will make use of the Guide in their classes will select the reactions and analyses to be performed by each student according to his knowledge, ability, and intentions.
