A TREATISE ON HITMAN PHYSIOLOGY. Designed for the use 



of Students and Practitioners of Medicine. Sixth edition, thoroughly revised and enlarged, 

 with three hundred and sixteen illustrations on wood. In one very beautiful octavo vol-

From tJte Preface, to the Sixth Edition. 



In the present edition of this book, while every part has received a careful revision, the ori- 

 ginal plan of arrangement has been changed only so far as was necessary for the introduction of 

 new material. 



The additions and alterations in the text, requisite to present concisely the growth of positive 

 physiological knowledge, have resulted in spite of the author's earnest efforts at condensation, 

 in an increase of fully fifty per cent, in the matter of the work. A change, however, in the ty- 

 posrrajihioal arrangement has accommodated these additions without undue enlargement in the 

 bulk of the volume. 



The new chemical notation and nomenclature are introduced into the present edition, :is hav 

 ing now so generally taken the place of the old, that no confusion need result from the change. 

 The centigrade system of measurements for length, volume, and weight, is also adopted, these 

 measurements being at present almost universally employed in original physiological investiga- 

 tions and their published accounts. Temperatures are given in degrees of the centigrade scale, 

 usually accompanied by the corresponding degrees of Fahrenheit's scale, inclosed in brackets.

of its old time popularity. The mechanical execution 

 of the work is all that could be desired. Peninxtitur 

 Journal of Mejlicine, Dec. 1875. 



This popular texi-book on physiology comes to us in 

 its sixth edition with the addition of about fifty per cent, 

 of new matter, chiefly in the departments of patho- 

 logical chemistry and the nervous system, where the 

 principal advances have been realized. With so tho- 

 rough revision and additions, that keep the work well 

 up to the times, its continued popularity may be confi- 

 dently predicted, notwithstanding the competition it 

 may encounter. The publisher's work is admirably 

 done. St. Louis Meil. und Sury. Journ , Dec. 1875 



We heartily welcome this, the sixth edition of this 

 admirable text book, than which there are none of equal 

 brevity more valuable. It is cordially recommended by 

 the Professor of Physiology in the University of Louisi- 

 ana, as by all competent teachers in the United States 

 and wherever the English language is read, this book 

 has been appreciated. The present edition, with its 316 

 admirably executed illustrations, has been carefully 

 revised and very much enlarged, although its bulk does 

 not seem perceptibly increased. Keiv Orleans Medical 

 and Surgical. Journal. March, 1876. 



The present edition is very much superior to every 

 other, not only in that it brings the subject up to the 

 times, but that it dnss so more fully and satisfactorily 



During the past few ye;;rs several new works on phy- 

 siology, and new edition? of old works, have appeared, 

 competing for the favor of the medical student, but none 

 will rival this new edition of Daltou. As now enlarged. 

 it will be found also to be. in general, a satisfactory work 

 of reference for the practitioner. Chicago Mai. Jaunt. 

 and Exuminn.r, Jan. 1 875. 



Prof. Dalton has discussed conflicting theories and 

 conclusions regarding physiological questions with a 

 fairness, a fulness, and a conciseness which lend fresh- 

 ness and vigor to the entire book. But hi* discussions 

 have been so guarded by a refusal of admission to those 

 speculative and theoretical explanations, which at best 

 exist in the minds of observers themselves as only pro- 

 babilities, that none of his readers need be led into 

 grave errors while making them a study. The Medical 

 Record, Feb. 19, 1876. 



The revision of this great work has brought it forward 

 with the physiological advances of the day. and renders 

 it, as it has ever been, the finest work for students ex- 

 tant. Xmhrille Journ. of Sled, and Stirg., Jan. IS" 6. 



For clearness and perspicuity, Balton's Physiology 

 commended itself to the student years ago. and was a 

 pleasant relief from the verbose productions which it 

 supplanted. Physiology has. however, made many ad- 

 vances since then and while the style has been pre- 

 served intact, the work in the present edition has been 

 brought u|> fully abreast of the times. The new chemical 

 notation and nomenclature have also been introdun.il 

 into the present edition. Notwithstanding the multi- 

 plicity of text-books oa physiology, this will lose none 



than any previous edition. Take it altogether, it re- 

 mains, in our humble opinion, the best text book on 

 physiology in any land or language. The Clinic, Nov. 

 6, 1875.
