Book Description

Excerpt from Elements of Water Bacteriology: With Special Reference to Sanitary Water Analysis A knowledge of the new science early became so indispensable for the sanitary expert that a special course in the Bacteriology of Water and Sewage has for some years been given to students of biology and sani tary engineering in the Biological Department of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. For workers in this course the present volume has been especially prepared, and it is fitting, we think, that such a manual should proceed from an institution whose faculty, gradu ates, and students have had a large share in shaping the science and art of which it treats. We shall be grati fied, however, if its field of usefulness extends to those following similar courses in other institutions, or occupied professionally in sanitary work.
