The Zoology of Tapeworms

There are many stories, and many names well known to public health workers, as well as many whose work should be better known than it is. For example, in 1943 this reviewer was privileged to work with Benjamin E. Holsendorf in the East Harlem district of New York City in a rat control campaign, and it was a pleasure to find his important work on ratproofing given extensive and sympathetic consideration by Dr. Williams. This book is a notable contribution to the still unwritten history of American public health and will very probably be the standard work on the subject for many years to come. GEORGE ROSEN
