CHILDREN. Third Edition, revised and enlarged. In one handsome octavo volume 



of 720 pages. Cloth, ,">.- leather. $C>. ( Just J.<*i<i '/.) 



The eminent success which this work has achieved has encouraged the author, in preparing 

 this third edition, to render it even more worthy than heretofore of the favor of the prof ion. 

 It has been thoroughly revised, and very considerable additions have been made I hi -ni 'hout. 

 To accommodate these the volume has been printed in a .--mailer type. 80 as io prevent any 

 notable increase in its size, and it is presorted in the hope that, it may attain tli 'i of 



the American text book on this important department of medical science.

 periority to eitherof the former editions. The position , r otheln and cerebro-spinal fever, which lately prevailed 



of the author, as physician and consultant to several 

 large children's hospitals in New York city, has fur- 

 nished him with constant occasions to put his treatment 

 to the test, and his work has at once that practical and 

 thoughtful tone which is a marked characteristic ot the 

 hest productions of the American medical press. Mni. 

 and Surg. Reporter, Feb. 1876. 



The former editions of this book have given it the 

 highest rank among works of its class, and the present 



in epidemic form in some parts of the country. Tire 

 article upon diphtheria, containing the latest develop- 

 ments in the pathology and treatment of that 

 ease, which so lately ravaged our country, is peculiarly 

 interesting to every practitioner. M'e gladly welcome 

 this standard work, and cheerfully recommend it to our 

 readers as the best on this subject in the Kniilisli lan- 

 guage. JVastoiMe Journal of Med. and Surgery, March,

The present edition, which is the sixth, is fully up I teachers. As a whole, however, the work is the best 

 to the times in the discussion of all those points in the American one that we have, and in Us spec

HOOD. Fifth American from the sixth revised and enlarged English edition. In one large 

 and handsome octavo volume of 678 pages. Cloth, $4 50 ; leather, S5 50. (Just Tssntd.) 



The continued demand for this work on both sides of the Atlantic, and its translation into Ger- 

 man, French, Italian, Danish, Dutch, and Russian, show that it fills satisfactorily a want exten- 

 sively felt by the profession. There is probably no man living who can speak with the authority 

 derived from a more extended experience thnn Dr. West, and his work now presents the result; 

 nearly 2000 recorded cases, and 600 post-mortem examinations selected from among nearly 1 

 cases which have passed under his care. In the preparation of the present edition he ha* omitted 

 much that appeared of minor importance, in order to find room for the introduction of additiona 

 matter, and the volume, while thoroughly revised, is therefore not increased materially in size.
