BARTHOLOW, ROBERTS, A. M., M. D., LL. D., 



Prof, of Materia Medica and General Therapeutics in the Jefferson Med. Coll. of Phila., etc. 

 Medical Electricity. A Practical Treatise on the Applications of Electricity 

 to Medicine and Surgery. New (third) edition. In one very handsome octavo volume of 

 308 pages, with 110 illustrations. Cloth, $2.50. Just ready. 



FROM THE PREFACE TO THE THIRD EDITION. 



It would be a mere affectation of indifference, which I am far from feeling, to refrain 

 from the expression of my gratification that the publishers of this work have called on 

 me to prepare a new edition, and my gratification is the greater in that the sale of this 

 and other works on Medical Electricity afford indubitable evidence of growth in the 

 appreciation of electricity as a remedial agent by the medical profession in general. 

 That this force should be utilized in therapeutics, just as any drug is employed as a 

 remedy, is a fact of the highest importance. As stated in the preface to the first edition, 

 one of my purposes in preparing the work was to afford some aid in generalizing medical 

 electricity. The new material which appears in this edition is chiefly practical in char- 

 acter, the most important additions having been made to the therapeutical sections. 



RICHARDSON, B. W., M.A., M.D., LL. D., F.R.S., F.S.A. 



Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, London. 



Preventive Medicine. In one octavo volume of 729 pages. Cloth, $4; leather, 

 f 5 ; very handsome half Russia, raised bands, $5.50. 



Dr. Richardson has succeeded in producing a 

 work which is elevated in conception, comprehen- 

 sive in scope, scientific in character, systematic in 

 arrangement, and which is written in a clear, con- 

 cise and pleasant manner. He evinces the happy 

 faculty of extracting the pith of what is known on 

 the subject, and of presenting it in a most simple, 



intelligent and practical form. There is perhaps 

 no similar work written for the general public 

 that contains such a complete, reliable and instruc- 



tive collection of data upon the diseases common 

 to the race, their origins, causes, and the measures 

 for their prevention. The descriptions of diseases 

 are clear, chaste and scholarly; the discussion of 

 the question of disease is comprehensive, masterly 

 and fully abreast with the latest and best knowl- 

 edge on the subject, and the preventive measures 

 advised are accurate, explicit and reliable. The 

 American Journal of the Medical Sciences, April, 1884.

THE YEAR-BOOK OF TREATMENT FOR 1886. 



A Comprehensive and Critical Review for Practitioners of Medi- 

 cine. In one 12mo. volume of 309 pages, bound in limp cloth, $1.25. 

 This "review" includes every department of 



review 



medical and surgical as well as obstetrical practice. 

 It attempts nothing in the way of etiology, diag- 

 nosis or symptoms, but limits itself to the ad- 



vances made in the treatment of diseases, injuries, 

 tc. The work seems to us to be invaluable to 



every practitioner, whether he be a general one or 

 a specialist. It is a book to be kept on the office 

 table for continuous reference. An excellent in- 

 dex to subjects, as well as to authors quoted, is 



appended. Virginia Medical Monthly, April, 1887.
