HOSS, JAMES, M. D., F. R. C. P., LL. D., 



Senior Assistant Physician to the Manchester Royal Infirmary. 



A Handbook on Diseases of the Nervous System. In 



volume of 725 pages, with 184 illustrations. Cloth, $4.50 ; leather, $5.50. 



This admirable work is intended for students of 

 medicine and for such medical men as have no time 

 for lengthy treatises. In the present instance the 

 duty of arranging the vast store of material at the 

 disposal of the author, and of abridging the de- 

 scription of the different aspects of nervous dis- 

 eases, has been performed with singular skill, and 

 the result is a concise and philosophical guide to 



one octavo 



the department of medicine of which it treats. 

 Dr. Ross holds such a high scientific position that 

 any writings whicn bear his name are naturally 

 expected to have the impress of a powerful intel- 

 lect. In every part' this handbook merits the 

 highest praise, and will no doubt be found of the 

 greatest value to the student as well as to the prac- 

 titioner. Edinburgh Medical Journal, Jan. 1887. 



MITCHELL, S. WEIR, M. !>., 



Physician to Orthopaedic Hospital and the Infirmary for Diseases of the Nervous System, PhUa., etc. 



Lectures on Diseases of the Nervous System; Especially in Women. 

 Second edition. In one l'2mo. volume of 288 pages. Cloth, $1.75. 



No work in our language develops or displays 

 more features of that many-sided affection, hys- 

 teria, or gives clearer directions for its differen- 

 tiation, or sounder suggestions relative to its 

 general management and treatment. The book 

 is particularly valuable in that it represents in 

 the main the author's own clinical studies, which 

 have been so extensive and fruitful as to give his 



teachings the stamp of authority all over the 

 realm of medicine. The work, although written 

 by a specialist, has no exclusive character, and 

 the general practitioner above all others will find 

 its perusal profitable, since it deals with diseases 

 which he frequently encounters and must essay 

 to treat. American Practitioner, August, 1885. 



HAMILTON, ALLAN McLANE, M. &., 



Attending Physician at the Hospital for Epileptics and Paralytics, BlaekwelCs Island, N. T. 

 Nervous Diseases ; Their Description and Treatment. Second edition, thoroughly 

 revised and rewritten. In one octavo volume of 598 pages, with 72 illustrations. Cloth, $4. 



When the first edition of this good book appeared 

 we gave it our emphatic endorsement, and the 

 present edition enhances our appreciation of the 

 book and its author as a safe guide to students of 

 clinical neurology. One of the best and most 

 critical of English neurological journals, Brain, has 



characterized this book as the best of its kind in 

 any language, which is a handsome endorsement 

 from an exalted source. The improvements in the 

 new edition, and the additions to it, will justify its 

 purchase even by those who possess the old.

TTTKE, DANIEL HACK, M. &., 



Joint Author of The Manual of Psychological Medicine, etc. 



Illustrations of the Influence of the Mind upon the Body in Health 

 and Disease. Designed to elucidate the Action of the Imagination. New edition. 

 Thoroughly revised and rewritten. In one handsome octavo volume of 467 pages, with 

 two colored plates. Cloth, $3.00. 



It is impossible to peruse these interesting chap- 

 ters without being convinced of the author's per- 

 fect sincerity, impartiality, and thorough mental 



J * ii**J-' 1 



grasp. Dr. Tuke has exhibited the" requisite 

 amount of scientific address on all occasions, and 

 the more intricate the phenomena the more firmly 

 has he adhered to a physiological and rational 



method of interpretation. Guided by an enlight- 

 ened deduction, the author has reclaimed for 

 science a most interesting domain in psychology, 

 previously abandoned to charlatans and empirics. 

 This book, well conceived and well written, must 

 commend itself to every thoughtful understand- 

 ing. New York Medical Journal, September 6, 1884. 



CLOUSTON, THOMAS S., M. D., F. JR. C. P., L. R. C. S., 



Lecturer on Mental Diseases in the University of Edinburgh. 



Clinical Lectures on Mental Diseases. With an Appendix, containing an 

 Abstract of the Statutes of the United States and of the Several States and Territories re- 

 lating to the Custody of the Insane. By CHARLES F. FOISOM, M. D., Assistant Professor 

 of Mental Diseases, Med. Dep. of Harvard Univ. In one handsome octavo volume of 541 

 pages, with eight lithographic plates, four of which are beautifully colored. Cloth, $4. 



The practitioner as well as the student will ac- 

 cept the plain, practical teaching of the author as a 

 forward step in the literature of insanity. It is 

 refreshing to find a physician of Dr. Clouston's 

 xperience and high reputation giving the bed- 

 side notes upon which his experience has been 

 founded and his mature judgment established. 

 Such clinical observations cannot but be useful to 



the general practitioner in guiding him to a diag- 

 nosis and indicating the treatment, especially in 

 many obscure and doubtful cases of mental dis- 

 ease. To the American reader Dr. Folsom's Ap- 

 pendix adds greatly to the value of the work, and 

 will make it a desirable addition to every library.
