FIRST PRINTING. From the author's Preface: "A medical examiner for a life insurance company occupies an important and responsible position in the medical field to-day. This branch of medical science has developed into a specialty, and in order that the demands of the companies may be fulfilled, it is essential that the examiner should possess special knowledge and have qualifications rendering him capable of meeting these requirements. After the devotion of many years to examinations for life insurance, the author has prepared this book on account of the realization of the necessity for such a work, with the single purpose of placing before the examiner his particular needs, and the practical application of such facts as may be revealed in his examination." 12 Chapters: General Introduction.-Personal Qualifications of the Examiner; External Examination of the Applicant; External Examination of the Applicant (Continued); Personal History of the Applicant with Reference to Diseases and Conditions, Acquired or Hereditary; Physical Examination of the Chest; Physical Examination of the Chest (Continued); Physical Examination of Chest.

Blood-Vessels, and Neuroses of the Heart; Physical Examination of th Abdomen; Examination of the Urine; Diseases and Conditions Affecting Life Insurance; The Insurance of Sub-Standard Lives.
