Abstract

THIS volume constitutes Dr. Gresswell's dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Medicine at Oxford, and is published “as a mark of distinction” by the University. It is the result of some six months clinical work at the South-Western Fever Hospital of the Metropolitan Asylums Board, and the author is to be congratulated alike upon the large number of carefully recorded observations which he has made, and upon the evidence his book affords of his careful study of the literature of scarlatina.

A Contribution to the Natural History of Scarlatina, derived from Observations on the London Epidemic of 1887-88.

By D. Astley Gresswell Oxon. (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1890.)
