the professor of tropical medicine at the Louisiana State University in New Orleans, and the occupant of a chair in the University of Rome. The autobiography vividly illustrates his three major passions: the foremost is his interest in research, which early in his life led to the establishment of his reputation by the discovery of trypanosomes in the cerebrospinal fluid of cases of sleeping-sickness, and which to-day, at the age of over 80, impels him to maintain and study cultures of pathogenic fungi in his laboratory in Lisbon; the second passion shows him in the role of court physician, a survivor of a past age when men of our profession were not infrequently in the inner councils of their king; the third passion of his life is anglophilia, which began when he was a boy in Florence and easily survived the last war-hardly surprising when one remembers the numerous. patients, colleagues, and relations he has accumulated in this country. They and many others will read this book with interest and pleasure. P. C. C. GARNHAM.
