 vised and rewritten by the Author, assisted by WILLIAM H. WELCH, M. D., Professor of 

 Pathology, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, and AUSTIN FLINT, JR., M. D., LL. D., 

 Professor of Physiology, Bellevue Hospital Medical College, N. Y. In one very handsome

general approval by medical students and practi- 

 tioners as the work of Professor Flint. In all the 

 medical colleges of the United States it is the fa- 

 vorite work upon Practice; and, as we have stated 

 before in alluding to it, there is no other medical 

 work that can be so generally found in the libra- 

 ries of physicians. In every state and territory 

 of this.vast country the book that will be most likely 

 to be found in the office of a medical man, whether 

 in city, town, village, or at some cross-roads, is 

 Flint's Practice. We make this statement to a 

 considerable extent from personal observation, and 

 it is the testimony also of others. An examina- 

 tion shows that very considerable changes have 

 been made in the sixth edition. The work may un- 

 doubtedly be regarded as fairly representing the 

 present state of the science of medicine, and as 

 reflecting the views of those who exemplify in 

 their practice the pre'sent stage of progress of med- 

 ical art. Cincinnati Medical News, Oct. 1886. 



A new edition of a work of such established rep- 

 utation as Flint's Medicine needs but few words to 

 commend it to notice. It may in truth be said to 

 embody the fruit of his labors in clinical medicine, 

 ripened by the experience of a long life devoted to 

 its pursuit. America may well be proud of having 

 produced a man whose indefatigable industry and 

 gifts of genius have done so much to advance med- 

 icine ; and all English-reading students must be 

 grateful for the work which he has left behind him. 

 It has few equals, either in point of literary excel- 

 Sence, or of scientific learning, and no one can fail 

 to btudy its pages without being struck by the lu- 

 cidity and accuracy which characterize them. It 

 is qualities such as these which render it so valu- 

 able for its purpose, and give it a foremost place 

 among the text-books of this generation. The 

 London Lancet, March 12, 1887. 



No text-book on the principles and practice of 

 medicine has ever met in this country with such 



HARTSHORNE, HENRY, M. D., LL. D., 



Lately Professor of Hygiene in the University of Pennsylvania. 



Essentials of the Principles and Practice of Medicine. A Handbook 

 for Students and Practitioners. Fifth edition, thoroughly revised and rewritten. In one 

 royal 12mo. volume of 669 pages, with 144 illustrations. Cloth, $2.75 ; half bound, $3.00. 



Within the compass of 600 pages it treats of the 

 history of medicine, general pathology, general 

 symptomatology, and physical diagnosis (including 

 laryngoscope, ophthalmoscope, etc.), general ther- 

 apeutics, nosology, and special pathology and prac- 

 tice. There is a wonderful amount of information 

 contained in this work, and it is one of the best 

 of its kind that we have seen. Glasgow Medical 

 Journal, Nov. 1882. 



An indispensable book. No work ever exhibited 

 & better average of actual practical treatment than 



this one; and probably not one writer in our day 

 had a better opportunity than Dr. Hartshorne for 

 condensing all the views of eminent practitioners 

 into a 12mo. The numerous illustrations will be 

 very useful to students especially. These essen- 

 tials, as the name suggests, are not intended to 

 supersede the text-books of Flint and Bartholow, 

 but they are the most valuable in affording the 

 means to see at a glance the whole literature of any 

 disease, and the most valuable treatment. Chicago 

 Medical Journal and Examiner, April, 1882. 



BRISTOWE, JOHN STER, M. D., F. R. C. P., 



Physician and Joint Lecturer on Medicine at St. Thomas' Hospital, London. 



A Treatise on the Practice of Medicine. Second American edition, revised 

 by the Author. Edited, with additions, by JAMES H. HUTCHINSON, M.D., physician to the 

 Pennsylvania Hospital. In one handsome octavo volume of 1085 pages, with illustrations. 

 Cloth, $5.00 ; leather, $6.00 ; very handsome half Russia, raised bands, $6.50. 



The book is a model of conciseness, and com- 

 bines, as successfully as one could conceive it to 

 be possible, an encyclopaedic character with the 

 smallest dimensions. It differs from other admi- 

 rable text-books in the completeness with which 

 it covers the whole field of medicine. Michigan 

 Medical News, May 10, 18SO. 



His accuracy in the portraiture of disease, his 

 care in stating subtle points of diagnosis, and the 

 faithfully given pathology of abnormal processes 

 have seldom been surpassed. He embraces many 

 diseases not usually considered to belong to theory 



and practice, as skin diseases, syphilis and insan- 

 ity, but they will not be objected to by readers, as 

 he has studied them conscientiously, and drawn 

 from the life. Medical and Surgical Reporter, De- 

 cember 20, 1879. 



The reader will find every conceivable subject 

 connected with the practice of medicine ably pre- 

 sented, in a style at once clear, interesting and 

 concise. The additions made by Dr. Hutchmeon 

 are appropriate and practical, and greatly add to 

 its usefulness to American readers. Buffalo Med- 

 ical and Surgical Journal, March, 1880.
