It is a very valuable work and I am delighted to see a Hindu 

 stholar throwing so much light on a most important but little 



known branch of Sanskrit learning.

The work forms a valuable contribution to the history of 

 drugs and will be found both useful and interesting by every 

 student of medicine. $or is it without interest to the general 



reader to whom the descriptions will be perfectly intelligible,

The glossary of Indian plants that concludes the volume 

 affords one more illustration of the valuable results that must 

 always follow in a combination of skilled European and native 

 labour on such subjects. There are many similar publications in 

 exi&tenoe, but they are for the most part defective and obsolete. 

 The combined work of Dr. Dutt and Dr. King has produced a 

 most valuable contribution to the botanical science of the world.

If Babu Udoy Chand Dutt is disappointed in the circulation 

 of his work it will not be for want of a worthy design or of any 

 of the qualities necessary to its successful accomplishment, but 

 of a class of appreciative readers, sufficiently large to give his 



hours usefulness of the high order at which he aims.

# # # Yf e h aye no hesitation in declaring his "Hindu 

 Materia Medioa" to be one of the most valuable contributions to 

 Indian medical literature, added daring the present age. His 

 work will be considered as a glorious example of what a well 

 educated doctor with long experience and a disinterested love for 

 his fellow beings and with a true appreciation of what was good 

 in olden times, can do for his own country. Our acknowledge- 

 ments are due to him for his eminent services to the cause of the 

 Hindu system of medicine, whioh will, we hope, continue to 

 receive fresh exposition from him. # # # # Now 

 that the value of the Hindu system of treatment and of indigen- 

 ous drugs in ohronio diseases is beginning to be more and more 

 appreciated, it will be well for all medioal practitioners in India 

 to secure a copy of Babu Udoy Chand Dutt's "Hindu Materia 

 Medioa." The knowledge of the Hindu System of Medicine so 

 long considered difficult to attain, has by the present work been 

 made much easier of aoquistion.
