“Practical” scctioti covcrs the tcchtiiques of ion cxchange separations for analysis and chromatography. The major section, “Applications,” covers specific methods for inorganic, organic, and biochemical analysis. The application of ion exchangers for analytical separations is based upon two principles: ( a ) Separation of exchangeable ions from nonexchangeable ions and nonelectrolytes (ion change method). ( 6 ) Separation of exchangeable ions from each other due t o differences in exchangeability (ion exchange chromatography). The first is treated more completely in this text. Each chapter is followed by a bibliography, and author and subject indexes are appended.
The author presents the subject from the ecological point of view, describing the interactions be. tween the organisms which cause disease and the host, which must either combat the infection or die. This second edition (the first edition, 1941, bore the title “Biological Aspects of Infectious Disease”) contains a new chapter (11 pages) on “The Antibacterial Drugs.” The author stresses the dangers of mass chemoprophylaxis, particularly regarding the evolution of resistant varients of pathogens. The author’s fine style and clarity of expression make the text interesting. There is no documentation, but an index is appended.
