Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Fourteen brucellosis experts from seven countries discuss the history, epidemiology, microbiology, immunology, diagnosis, treatment, and control of brucellosis in animals and man. Edited by members of the World Health Organization's Expert Committee on Brucellosis, this text is the first comprehensive treatment of the disease since The Nature of Brucellosis by Wesley W. Spink in 1956. Topics reviewed with current references include infection caused by newer species of Brucella, such as B. canis, newer diagnostic techniques, such as radioimmunoassay and ELISA, and newer treatments, such as rifampin and the quinolones. The pathogenesis and pathophysiology of brucellosis is reviewed in depth, correlating the disease in animals with the illness in humans. This volume is extremely useful for clinicians, researchers, and students in medicine, veterinary science, microbiology, immunology, epidemiology, public health, and international health.
"Occasionally God gives to His Church a man of unusual gifts, deep
piety, and true insight. Such a man was the late Robert Dick Wilson
(1856-1930). Dr. Wilson lived at a time when the Old Testament was
being subjected to some of the severest attacks and criticisms that
it had ever received. He himself was a devout Christian and grieved
over these attacks. He also had an insight into their nature and
into the need for refuting them. And he had the God-given ability
for standing up to the challenge which these attacks constituted,
accepting it and seeking to give an answer." -from Introduction by
E.J. Young
This commentary on Daniel is a serious painstaking work by one of
the foremost of contemporary Old Testament scholars. It is ably
designed to meet the needs of pastors, students, and all those
seeking a better understanding of Scripture. The author presents a
clear, positive exposition of prophecy coupled with an accurate
explanation of historical fact based on research and the
accumulated authority of other outstanding Biblical scholars. In
addition, he endeavors to bring out the exact meaning of the Hebrew
and Aramaic languages in the original translation accompanying the
commentary. The reader will find adequate reference to the
divergent interpretations of other scholars, with a thorough and
erudite explanation of differences. Those unacquainted with the
ancient languages can nevertheless read this volume with great
profit. "A fresh and stimulating approach ...Thoroughly done ...A
wholesome addition to the field of Old Testament study." - Review
and Expositor "The author has made himself, in the space of a
relatively few years, easily the foremost among conservative
scholars of the Old Testament." - The Perkins School of Theology
"Dr.Young makes it abundantly plain that the issue is not between
good and bad, intelligent and obscurantist, scientific and
unscientific scholarship. ..(but) between a believing scholarship
and a skeptical and rationalistic scholarship." - Oswalt T. Allis
Edward J. Young (1907-1968) was considered one of the ablest
conservative scholars in the field of Old Testament, served for
many years as Professor of Old Testament at Westminster Seminary,
Philadelphia.
"Dr. E. J. Young has again brought to the Christian trade a work
which excels in its biblical content. This text on the prophetic
institution is not a run-of-the-mill work in either its thesis or
presentation. The literary style is a blend of simplicity and
lucidity. The thesis cuts across the general view concerning the
correct basis for interpreting the prophets and advances a strict
adherence to the rule, 'let Scripture interpret Scripture.'" -
Christian Life "This reviewer must confess that he is impressed
with the saneness and thoroughness of Dr. Young's exegetical
technique. Dr. Young is obviously a scholar of no mean ability; and
this book, as well as others by him . . ., provides ample proof
that he has been well trained in the field of Semitic philology." -
