Herty was In 1919 Editor of the Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry and past president of the American Chemical Society. OCLC lists one copy with a 1919 date, but I think it's a phantom, since the 83 pages listed corresponds exactly to the number of text pages here, the ensuing numbered pages being blank.
Contains 26 papers including H. Houston Merritt's "Aims of Pharmacotherapy"; Kendall B. Corbin's "Pharmacologic Agents in the Treatment of Movement Disorders"; Stewart Wolf's "Placebos"; Hoagland & Freeman's "Some Neuroendocrine Considerations"; Nathan S.
