    IjST this edition the book has received, as I think, not incon- siderable additions and improvements. To mention only the most important ones : The section upon the examination of the contents of the stomach has been almost entirely rewritten, and so have some portions of the section on the examination of the organs of the senses, especially that of the eye. The laryngoscopic examination of the larynx has been treated anew, and much more extensively than in the first edition. A short section, almost entirely new, has been added upon the enlargement of the vessels of the brain, and at the end of the book a concise presentation of those peculiarities of micro- organisms whose recognition and discrimination are made possible by cultures and inoculation. Finally, with the hearty cooperation of the publisher, the illustrations of the most important micro- organisms are printed in colors, and also some entirely new figures have been added. I am indebted to the friendly assistance of Professor Gartner in the department of bacteriology, of which I here make public acknowledgment. OSWALD VIERORDT. Jena, August, 1889.
