Pathogenic Bacteria

though the pneumococcus Is the infective agent in almost every case of pneumonia
and primary broncho-pneumonia, the anatomical distinction is maintained. In
secondary broncho-pneumonia, however, there is nearly always a mixed infection,
and with the familiar streptococcus are often found Friedlander's bacillus and
staphylococci, of the specific germ of influenza, diphtheria, pneumonia, or tuber-
culosis. Dr. Holt is certainly much to be congratulated on his discussions of the
bacterial agencies at work in the production of disease. We have said enough to
convey the very high opinion we have formed of the whole volume, and we con-
fidently expect that it will rank in the estimation of the profession as one of the
best of many good books that have come to us from across the Atlantic."—
