摘要：ALIMirED survey of periodical literature indicates that no recent critical studies have been made in the field of medical book reviews. Their adequacy and usefulness as aids in the selection of books for medical libraries apparently have not been criticized or measured either in the medical or in the library professional periodicals. In related subjects Doggett,2 Bentley,' and Whitfords have made studies on the book reviewing adequacy of certain biological, chemical and technical journals in these respective fields. Anyone familiar with the book reviews in medical journals knows the great need for a critical study in this subject.
