JlJ have in the electric-light bath a thermal method by which thedegree of heat applied can be physiologically and exactlymeasured, and knowing the powerful influence of light uponthe life of the cell and of the whole organism, we believethat this method will hold a prominent place among the formsof thermal applications, and that we shall be enabled byits use to influence a series of maladies more quickly, moreeffectively, and more satisfactorily than heretofore. For a fuller discussion of the physiological effects of sun-light and of the electric light, see pages i68 to i8o. Therapeutic Applications.— The electric-light bath has 1253proved, in the authors hands, of far greater value in thetreatment of a large variety of maladies than any other meansof applying heat except w
