Philadelphia: Blakiston, 1945. Pp. ix + 145. $2.75. This book was written in the military theater in Africa at the end of the Tunisian campaign and first published in September 1943 by the Josiah Macy, Jr. Foundation. Because of military restrictions it received limited dis- tribution at that time-principally to medical officers in the Armed Services. In the present edition only a few deletions and minor revisions have been made. The subject matter, facts, findings, and opinions are based on the authors' observation of patients with acute neurosis in both Ground Forces and Air Forces personnel of British and American troops. Nine clinical syndromes are described: (1) free-floating anxiety states, severe and mild; (2) somatic regressions; (3) psychosomatic visceral disturbances; (4) conversion states; (5) de- pressed states; (6) concussion states; (7) exhaustion states; (8) psychotic states; and (9) malingering. Each syndrome is illustrated by one case history or more. These are very brief and containolittle in the way of personality evaluation. This is an understandable defect in view of the environmental situation under which the authors were working. The types of therapy used were narcosynthesis with sodium pentothal, brief psychotherapy, convulsive shock therapy (with frenisol, a British equivalent of metrasol), continuous sleep, occupational therapy, group therapy, and general convalescent care. Emphasis is given to narcosynthesis, which is used to induce a seminarcose state during which the patient relives his traumatic com- bat experiences. The authors do not mention that many workers for some years have been using this general un- covering technique with sodium amytal with some success in both military and civilian neuroses and psychoses. Credit for such work goes to Bleckwenn, Horsley (Eng- land), Broder, Palmer, Braceland, and others. No credit should be withheld from Grinker or Spiegel, for they probably are the first American psychiatrists to use this type of treatment in World War II. War neuroses is a dramatic presentation of tense life situations involving human emotions and body responses expressed in a time of unusual stress-a global war. Civilian psychiatrists and associated workers in the field should gain additional insight into the neuroses of war from this volume. ADDISON M. DUVAL, M.D. Saint Elizabeth's Hospital, Washington, D.

WATER BACTERIOLOGYBy S. C. PRESCOTT, Emeritus Professor of Industrial Biology, Mas-sachusetts Institute of Technology; C.-E. A. WINSLOW, Professor ofPublic Health,* Yale School of Medicine; and M. H. McCRADY,Chief, Division of Laboratories, Quebec Ministry of Health and Social

Welfare

* The text of this new edition has been doubled; the material allocated to the veryimportant subject of coliform organisms is more than triple that of former editions.Almost wholly rewritten, the book features a historical treatment of bacteriologicalmethods of water examination, and of official standards based on their use, furnishingthe necessary background for an understanding of current methods and standards.Special attention has been given to the details and the modus operandi of each test andreaction commonly employed in water bacteriology.

* Although its viewpoint is completely modernized, the book is concerned, as always,with the public health aspects of the subject, the sanitary significance of bacteria in water.Water bacteriologists, research workers and laboratory workers will find that this newedition maintains PRESCOTT AND WINSLOW'S reputation for reliability, at thesame time bringing it abreast of the times.

RCA Type ENC electron microscope used byCalco to speed textile and pigment research.

The Calco Chemical Division, ofthe American Cyanamid Company,uses the RCA desk-type electronmicroscope in developing new andimproved dyes, pigments, and tex-tile finishes. This remarkable instru-ment has proved invaluable in thiscompany's research on the size andstructure of particles, surfaces, andfibers.Magnifications of 500 or 5000

times are obtained with useful pho-tographic enlargement up to 100,000diameters.

Disintegrated Cotton Fiber X20,000- Calcouses such micrographs to study fibers andthus determine proper dyeing technique.

Calco reports:"The electron microscope is particu-

larly well suited to the study of pig-ments and insoluble dyes. For maximumhiding power, tinting strength, and col-oring value, the primary particle size ofpigments must be well below the di-mensions that can be clearly resolvedby visual light."The electron microscope, utilizing

electrons instead of light waves, has aresolving power many times that of theordinary light microscope, and showswith great clarity the outlines of indi-vidual particles. It reveals not only the

shape and surface smoothness but fre-quently the structure of secondaryaggregates."The studies which have been pos-

sible with the electron microscope havecontributed materially to the develop-ment of pigments with improved prop-erties and performance."RCA electron microscopes are con-

split seconds into minutesBYSLOWING to leisurely pace action

far too fast for the human eye toregister, the Eastman High-SpeedCamera provides a direct approach toa variety of engineering problems.

It lets you watch and study flamephenomena, movement of fluids, vibra-tion and chatter in machine elements,and many other types of rapid motion.The Eastmar High-Speed Camera

gives you the visual acts you need. Bytaking motion pictures at 3,000 frames

a second, then projecting these "high-speed" pictures, slowe down to 16frames a second, you magnify "actiontime" nearly 200-fold, to the pointat which you can see, analyze, andmeasure.

New applications of the EastmanHigh-Speed Camera to industry's prob-lems are constantly proving the valueof this "Time Microscope."EsR4
