Psychiatric Research

The occasion for publishing this book is perhaps as interesting as the book itself; it was the opening of a new laboratory for biochemical research on psychiatric problems at the McLean Hospital, the psychiatric department of the General Hospital at Boston (Mass.). To this came a number of eminent visitors whose invited speeches form this volume. They included professors of physiology, neurology and psychiatry, and their papers cover problems ranging from the general needs of research to biochemical studies of cerebral function in great detail.

The book is thus primarily for the doctor or scientific research worker, and will be somewhat too abstruse for other readers ; who may nevertheless be interested in the breadth of vision and detail of research framed in this ambitious undertaking. R.F.T.
