Bates and Christie-RESPIRATORY FUNCTION IN DISEASE Drs. Bates and Christie make brilliant use of recently de- veloped knowledge of pulmonary physiology in this timely volume on conditions affecting the lung. They begin by ac- quainting the reader with the methods available for studying pulmonary function, and with the anatomy and values for the normal lung. They review for you the advantages and disad- vantages of current methods. Changes in pulmonary function, as a consequence of age or obesity, and in different body positions, are delineated, and an outline is given of what is known about adaptation to altitude and to exercise. Most of the book describes individual disease entities, covering clinical features, radiologic features and pathology. The authors pro- vide exhaustive explanation of the pathophysiologic effects of each disorder on overall pulmonary-function. Most emphasis is given to those clinical conditions more commonly encoun- tered. Special stress is placed on a helpful delineation of pulmonary emphysema in all its forms, on chronic bronchitis, on respiratory failure, on lung diseases caused by physical and chemical agents, and on the secondary effects of heart disease.

Whype c brears wwe can predict

ghsta athis e olutionary~* microscope will be

z9 ~widely imitated.

T h15 remarkable microscope by American Optical features aninfinity-corrected optical system, the most significant basic improve-ment in microscope design made in this century. It provides two majorperformance breakthroughs which, we can safely predict, will causeother microscope manufacturers to imitate itS design.

First, the new infinity-corrected optical system provides a flatnessof field and optical performance never before obtainable. This meanscrisper, sharper visual images and markedly superior photomicro-graphs that are flat from edge-to-edge and corner-to-corner of theprint. Secondly, the new optical system makes possible a vastlyimproved focusing concept. Only the objective moves when you focus...body and stage remain motionless. The rack-and-pinion, source

of 80-90% of all breakdown and maintenance problems, is eliminated.The entire focusing mechanism is enclosed in the arm, lubricated forlife and sealed.

Superior optical performance and virtually maintenance-freemechanical performance -two big reasons why this microscope willbe widely imitated. We don't mind. We've been imitated many timesbefore! American Optical Company, Instrument Division, Buffalo,New York 14215.

GOLD-PLATED HOT SPOT. In the manufacture of modern communicationsequipment, many processes require an efficient and economical method ofheating components quickly and without contaminating them. A readily availablesource of heat for such purposes is radiant energy, particularly in the infrared.Western Electric engineers are developing new ways to apply it to manufactur-ing. One particularly successful technique employs a quartz-iodine lamp in anelliptical, gold-plated reflector. Work temperatures in excess of 2400°C havebeen attained within seconds, using such systems. The reflector is gold-platedbecause gold is a particularly efficient reflector of infrared; and it is ellipticalso that the lamp can be placed at one of its two foci, and the heat will be con-centrated at the other. Just one of the many new and imaginative manu-facturing techniques that help Western Electric produce a continuoussupply of quality products for the Bell Telephone System. WESTERN ELECTRIC

SUBMICROSCOPIC ORTHO-AND PATHO-MORPHOLOGYOF THE LIVER In Two VolumesBy Heinz David, Head of the Electron-microscopic Division of the Instituteof Pathology, Humboldt-University ofBerlin

361 superbly detailed half-tone plates il-lustrate the intricate submicroscopic structureof the liver and are thoroughly explained inan accompanying text. In addition to provid-ing a complete study of liver pathology, thebook contains a great deal of general infor-mation on cytology, comparative anatomy,and biochemistry. There is no comparablebook in English.

In addition to investigations on the humanliver, there are comparative studies of twen-ty-four different animal species of various agegroups. Researchers using optical microscopeswill find that the plates will help them in-terpret their own observations in terms ofsubmicroscopic details such as the Dissespace, the Golgi apparatus, and the finestructure of bile capillaries.CONTENTS: Technique. Parenchymal cellsof the liver in various animal species and inman. Sinusoid and star cells. Ortho- andpatho-morphology of the various componentsof the parenchymal liver cell.

radiation and- for total sunlight werestressed. Problems of measuring ultra-violet B in large-scale field studies anda description of a new method forsuch measurements were noted. Theimportance of being able to comparemeasurements in order to assess thecarcinogenic role of sunlight at differ-ent parts of the earth was emphasized.Also noted was the need for standardi-zation of light measurements in bothlaboratory and field.

In pathology, the problem of classi-fication of skin tumors and their topo-graphical distribution exists. Parallelsbetween distribution of these lesions onthe face and incidence of ultraviolet Bwere shown; the important part playedby scattering was demonstrated. In thecourse of discussion of the associationof skin cancer and keratosis, the ideadeveloped that it might be advisableto include both in a syndrome of patho-logical effects of ultraviolet B. The pos-sibility of systematic histopathologicstudies of changes in the skin withage-comparing exposed and coveredparts-was discussed.

Epidemiological discussions includedreports on the distribution of skin can-cer in the Transvaal, England, andQueensland, where there is high inci-dence of the disease. Concurrent mea-surements of the ultraviolet of sunlightare being made in these areas; theseinvestigations constitute the only closecoordination of measurements of sun-light and of cancer incidence. Diffi-culties in epidemiological study of adisease that depends upon cumulationof effect over a long period of timewere stressed; continued residence inthe same area, and proper reportingby the patient are factors of criticalimportance.

Perhaps the most important outcomeof the conference was the general rec-ognition of the many uncertainties andproblems involved. Each memberlearned something of others' difficultieswith the particular kind of measure-ments he is trying to make. Thereseemed complete agreement that theultraviolet B of sunlight is an importantfactor in human skin cancer; uncertain-ties center on the relative importanceof this factor in regard to geographicaldistribution and the extent to whichother factors may enter.The variety of backgrounds of the

participants, which made possible inter-change of ideas on various aspects ofthe problem, is indicated in the follow-ing list: H. F. Blum (physiology, Na-tional Cancer Institute), F. Daniels, Jr.

Swift, accurate analysis of a product *like this -with LABELLED REAGENTS

. . is easy with Isotope Dilution Analysis-the only methodof analysis which does not rely on quantitative reactions or

quantitative isolation of a substance.

In use, it remains independent of decomposition of the sample e-and does not require highly specialised laboratories or veryexpensive apparatus.

One of the most sensitive and versatile methods known,Isotope Dilution Analysis provides accurate results with verycrude materials from which other procedures fail. Naphthalenein coal tar, vitamin BI2 and griseofulvin in fermentation

broths, selective herbicides, benzene hexachloride and nitro-toluenes are among the substances advantageously determinedby Isotope Dilution Analysis.

LABORATORY EXERCISES FOR BIOLOBICAL SCIENCEby OLWEN WILLIAMS, Ph.D., ERIK K. BONDE, Ph.D.,

University of Colorado, Boulder;and NEWELL A. YOUNGREN, Ph.D., University of Arizona, Tucson

2nd Printing, September 1964. 189 Pages, Wirebound $3.50

This book represents a series of carefully developed exercises designedespecially for the use of living or freshly killed material such as beanplants, pea plants, frogs, fruit flies and locally obtainable pond organisms.Where such specimens are unobtainable or too difficult for students to

handle, the authors have developed exercises using prepared slides forstudy of the woody stem, preserved specimens for dissection of the fetalpig, sheep's brain and eye, and inner ear of the shark. The contents in-clude a study of organization and maintenance in cells, higher plantsand vertebrates; vertebrate reproduction; plant and animal genetics; di-versity of organization, maintenance and reproduction in major plant andanimal groups; taxonomic relationships; and a consideration of the rela-tionship of organisms to their environment.
