INSANITY AND ITS TREATMENT: Lectures on the Treatment, 



Medical and Legal, of Insane Patients. With a Summary of the Laws in force in the 

 United States on the Confinement of the Insane. By ISAAC RAY, M. D. In one very 

 handsome octavo volume of 471 pages; cloth, $3 25. 



This volume is presented to meet the want, so frequently expressed, of a comprehensive trea- 

 tise, in moderate compass, on the pathology, diagnosis, and treatment of insanity. To render it o.. 

 more value to the practitioner in this country, Dr. Kay has added an appendix which ullords in- 

 formation, not elsewhere to be found in so accessible a form, to physicians who may at any moment 

 be called upon to take action in relation to patients. 



It satisfies a want which must have beeu sorely actually seen in practice and the appropriate treat- 

 ment for them, we find in Dr. Blandford's work a 

 considerable ad vance over previous writings on the 

 subject. His pictures of the various I'l.nns <! mental 

 lisease are so clear and good UK' t no reader cau fail 

 to be struck with their superiority to those given in 

 >rdinary manuals in the English language or (so far 

 as our own reading extends; in any other. London 



felt by the busy general practitioners of this country. 

 It takes the form of a manual of clinical description 

 of the various forms of insanity, with a description 

 of the mode of examining persons suspected of in- 

 sanity. We call particular attention to this feature 

 of the book, as giving it a unique value to the gene- 

 ral practitioner. If we pass from theoretical conside- 

 rations to descriptions of the varieties of insanity as

We know of no single work which contains, in so
