The authors express gratitude to the honorary medical staff of the Children's Hospital in Melbourne, particularly Dr. H. McLorrian, for access to patient cases and the cooperation of the resident medical staff. They also acknowledge the valuable assistance from hospital pathologists, Dr. John Perry, Dr. J. A. H. Smith, and Mr. J. Thayer of the Commonwealth Serum Laboratories in producing streptokinase. The bibliography includes references to several key studies on streptococcal infections and fibrinolysis, such as Cathie's work on streptococcal treatment and bacteriological fibrinolysis, Christensen's methods for measuring the activity of streptococcal enzymes, and Rillington's research on the effect of streptokinase activity in hemolytic streptococci. Dr. Ruth Rice Puffer's book "Practical Statistics in Health and Medical Work" is recommended for public health and hospital statistics workers. It covers routine investigations into topics like diphtheria immunization efficacy, infection rates in tuberculous patients' relatives, and venereal disease incidence. The book is praised for its comprehensive coverage of statistical techniques and practical applications. Dr. Albert D. G. Blanc's book "Money, Medicine and the Masses" discusses the financial barriers to complete medical care in New Zealand. The book is divided into two parts, addressing the patent medical trade, unqualified medical practice, and the role of pharmacists in health services. The second part focuses on state-controlled medical services, advocating for equal access to healthcare.The authors express gratitude to the honorary medical staff of the Children's Hospital in Melbourne, particularly Dr. H.
