ERICHSEN, JOHN E., F. R. S., F. R. C. S., 



Professor of Surgery in University College, London, etc. 



The Science and Art of Surgery; Being a Treatise on Surgical Injuries, Dis- 

 eases and Operations. From the eighth and enlarged English edition. In two large and 

 beautiful octavo volumes of 2316 pages, illustrated with 984 engravings on wood. 

 Cloth, $9; leather, raised bands, $11 ; half Eussia, raised bands, $12. 



In noticing the eighth edition of this well- 

 known work, it would appear superfluous to say 

 more than that it has, like its predecessors, been 

 brought fully up to the times, and is in conse- 

 quence one of the best treatises upon surgery that 

 has ever been penned by one man. We nave al- 

 ways regarded "The Science and Art of Surgery" 

 as one of the best surgical text-books in the 

 English language, and this eighth edition only 

 confirms our previous opinion. We take great 

 pleasure in cordially commending it to our read- 

 ers. The Medical News, April 11, 1885. 



After being before the profession for thirty 



years and maintaining during that period a re- 

 putation as a leading work on surgery, there is not 

 much to be said in the way of comment or criti- 

 cism. That it still holds its own goes without say- 

 ing. The author infuses into it his large experi- 

 ence and ripe judgment. Wedded to no school, 

 committed to no theory, biassed by no hobby, he 

 imparts an honest personality in his observations, 

 and his teachings are the rulings of an impartial 

 judge. Such men are always safe guides, and their 

 works stand the tests of time and experience. 

 Such an author is Erichsen, and such a work is his 

 Surgery. Medical Record, Feb. 21, 1885. 



BRYANT, THOMAS, F. It. C. 8., 



Surgeon and Lecturer on Surgery at Guy's Hospital, London. 



The Practice of Surgery. Fourth American from the fourth and revised Eng- 

 lish edition. In one large and very handsome imperial octavo volume of 1040 pages, with 

 727 illustrations. Cloth, $6.50; leather, $7.50; half Kussia, $8.00. 



The fourth edition of this work is fully abreast 

 of the times. The author handles his subjects 

 with that degree of judgment and skill which is 

 attained by years of patient toil and varied ex- 

 perience. The present edition is a thorough re- 

 vision of those which preceded it, with much new 

 matter added. His diction is so graceful and 

 logical, and his explanations are so lucid, as to 

 place the work among the highest order of text- 



books for the medical student. Almost every 

 topic in surgery is presented in such a form as to 

 enable the busy practitioner to review any subject 

 in every-day practice in a short time. No time is 

 lost with useless theories or superfluous verbiage. 

 In short, the work is eminently clear, logical and 

 practical. Chicago Medical Journal and Examiner, 

 April, 1886.

TREVES, FREDERICK, F. It. C. 8., 



Hunterian Professor at the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

 Students' Series of Manuals, page 4. 



We have here the opinions of thirty-three 

 authors, in an encyclopaedic form for easy and 

 ready reference. The three volumes embrace 

 every variety of surgical affections likely to be 

 met with, the paragraphs are short and pithy, and 

 the salient points and the beginnings of new sub- 

 jects are always printed in extra-heavy type, so 

 that a person may find whatever information he 

 may be in need of at a moment's glance. The 

 authors have confined themselves to stating only 

 what is really important to know, free from all 

 diffuseness and unnecessary adornment. Cincin- 

 nati Lancet-Clinic, August 21, 1886. 



The hand of Mr. Treves is evident throughout 



in the choice, arrangement and logical sequence of 

 the subjects. Every topic, as far as observed, is 

 treated with a fulness of essential detail, which is 

 somewhat surprising in view of the necessary 

 limitations of space. Another characteristic of the 

 work is the well-nigh universal acceptance of mod- 

 ern and progressive views of pathology and treat- 

 ment. The entire work isconceived and executed 

 in a scientific spirit. It is conservative without 

 bigotry and contains the bone and marrow of mod- 

 ern surgery. Taking the manual in its entirety, 

 it unquestionably fills a place in the surgeon's 

 library which would otherwise be untenanted.

BUTLIN, HENRY T. 9 F. It. C. 8., 



Assistant Surgeon to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, London. 



Diseases of the Tongue. In one 12mo. volume of 456 pages, with 8 colored 

 plates and 3 woodcuts. Cloth, $3.50. See Series of Clinical Manuals, page 4. 



The author has aimed to state facts rather than to 

 express opinions, and has compressed within the 

 compass of this small volume the pathology, etiol- 

 ogy, etc., of diseases of the tongue that are incon- 

 veniently scattered through general works on sur- 



Twenty-four excellent colored lithographs, illus- 

 trating the diseased condition of the organ have 

 been added, which much increase the value of 

 the book. Mr. Butlin has written a work of great 

 merit, and the book is a valuable addition to sur- 

 gical literature. New York Medical Journal, July 

 17, 188G. 



The language of the text is clear and concise.

TEEVE8, FREDERICK, F. It. C. S., 



Surgeon to and Lecturer on Surgery at the London Hospital. 



Intestinal Obstruction. In one pocket-size 12mo. volume of 522 pages, with 60 

 illustrations. Limp cloth, blue edges, $2.00. See Series of Clinical Manuals, page 4. 



A standard work on a subject that has not been 

 so comprehensively treated by any contemporary 

 English writer. Its completeness renders a full 

 review difficult, since every chapter deserves mi- 

 nute attention, and it is impossible to do thorough 



justice to the author in a few paragraphs. Intes- 

 tinal Obstruction is a work that will prove of 

 equal value to the practitioner, the student, the 

 pathologist, the physician and the operating sur- 

 geon. British Medical Journal, Jan. 31, 1885.
