Book Description
Excerpt from Materia Medica of Vegetable and Animal Origin: With Notes on the Properties, Uses, and Constituents of Crude Drugs The plan of the work is similar to that which has proved so convenient in the case of Pharmacopedia, ' the whole of the substances dealt with being treated in alphabetical order, without any attempt at classification. The monographs contain the most recent information available concerning the botanical or zoological, geo graphical, and commercial sources of the crude drugs and their principal commercial varieties, with explanatory notes on (1) the morphological nature of organised sub stances, (2) the mode of formation of such as are nu organised, and (3) the modes of collecting and preparing the drugs for the market. In addition, the various oficial and non-official drugs are described at length, and their physical and chemical characters explained more fully than is usual in the British Pharmacopmia and other works, special attention being given to the differences between genuine drugs of good quality and others which are of inferior quality, or used as adulterants or sub stitutes. The chemistry of drugs has also received special attention in this work, all the important constituents of drugs being mentioned in every case, while fuller con sideration is given to the chief active constituents including alkaloids, glucosides, resins, and volatile and fixed oils - and the proportions in which they are present. The properties and uses of the respective drugs are referred to as fully as seems desirable in a work of this character, designed primarily for the use of practising pharmacists and pharmaceutical students.

Book Description
Excerpt from A d104 Book of Materia Medica, Being an Account of the More Important Crude, Drugs of Vegetable and Animal Origin, Designed for Students of Pharmacy and Medicine The conditions under which this, the third edition, has been prepared, have been somewhat adverse. While it was considered desirable to add brief accounts of a number of drugs in less frequent use, duo regard has had to be given to tho high cost of production. A reduction in the number of pages has been made possible by tho use of a slightly smaller type and by the omission of the classification according to natural orders and of a few of tho illustrations. Notwithstanding this reduction in size, the number of drugs dealt with has been very considerably increased, and numerous notes have been added in order to increase the general utility of tho work. All temperatures are now stated in degrees Centigrade. The present volume, published under the title of a 'd104-Book of Materia Medica, ' constitutes a second edition of the author's 'Introduction to the Study of Materia Medica' which appeared in 1899. This change in title has been rendered desirable by the numerous additions that have been made to the work with tho view of broadening its scope. To this end a chapter on the history and commerce of drugs has boon added. Each section has been prefaced by a short introduction, including, in the section dealing with 'Animals and Animal Glands and Secretions, ' a brief outline of modem zoological classification. For the convenience of advanced students the microscopical characters of, and assay processes for, a number of important drugs have been added.
