Putnam's Sons New York London The Dietary Computer By Amy E. Pope Author of "Essentials in Dietetics," "Quiz Book for Nurses," ," "Anatomy and Physiology for Nurses," "Physics and Chemistry for Nurses," etc. 12. $1.25 net. By mail, $1.35 A great necessity has arisen for such a book as the Dietary Computer. The nurse, with these tables before her, can accurately estimate the food value of foods used for the sick. There will be an especial demand from hospitals and schools of Household Economics. G. P. Putnam's Sons New York London Physics and Chemistry for Nurses By AMY ELIZABETH POPE Formerly Instructor in the School of Nursing, Presbyterian Hospital; Instructor in the School of Nursing, St. Luke's Hospital, San Francisco. Profusely illustrated. $2.00 net. By mail, $2.10 IN many States, Chemistry has been made a required subject for Registered Schools of Nursing. There are only one or two books on Chemistry for Nurses on the market and these take for granted that pupils have some knowledge of the subject. As a matter of fact, hardly twenty-five per cent. of the college graduates who enter Schools of Nursing have studied Chemistry and Physics. An important feature of this volume is that it includes not only elementary Chemistry but the Chemistry of cooking and cleaning, a point that receives much emphasis in teaching in all modern training schools. The material has been collected through a number of years of actual experience as a teacher, and a selection has been carefully made of only that portion which the author finds most useful in her classes as an assistance to the pupils in connection with their other studies.
