PHILADELPHIAPREFACE TO THE THIRD EDITION
the aim of keeping this book abreastWith of present-
bacteriologic science, the entire work hasday been care-
revised and considerable new matter hasfully been added.
Thus, the important role played in the transmission of
disease by vermin has led to the addition of an article
on Pediculosis and Disinfestation; the wide-spread em-
ployment of the antiseptic treatment of infected wounds,
to a note on Dakin's solution and the chloramines; the
frequent occurrence of gas gangrene in war wounds, to
the inclusion of Bacillus perfringens; the recent pandemic
of influenza, to a note on the virus of that disease.
In connection with the chapter on INIalaria, it has been
deemed advisable to add a description of the life-history
of mosquitoes. The chapter on the Pneumococcus now
takes up the different types of organisms according to the
classification of Cole and Dochez. Under vaccine therapy
the use of lipovaccines has been discussed. Trench fever
has been added to the list of diseases spread by lice.
In all of these original work, theadditions, as in the
practical knowledge to nursingapplication of the newer
has constantly been kept in mind.
