The first edition of this book was reviewed in the Psychoanal. Rev., Vol. 20 (1933), p. 355. It was there highly commended and there has been no reason to change that point of view regarding it now that it has appeared in its second edition. It presents an admirable survey of just what its title indicates, namely, psychoanalysis, especially as it applies to medicine, and more particularly as it applies to general medicine, as it has been worked out in the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis under the direction of the author, the results of which have been added to this edition. The reviewer merely wishes to add to what he has previously said that the book contains the sort of presentation which every physician really ought to have in order that he may understand his patients and therefore which every physician might read to his advantage; and in any case that the new generations of physicians which are swarming upon us are going to have this knowledge because psychoanalysis will surely find its way directly or indirectly into the medical curricula, because medical colleges, like all other institutions, develop in response to needs and demands.
