This work, which corresponds to the Report 

 on the Progress of Pharmacy of the American 

 Pharmaceutical Association and the Yearbook 

 of the Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain 

 is indeed welcome as an additional source o^ 

 reference to the literature of pharmaceutical 

 progress for 1892. It contains over 100 pages 

 more than the Jahresbericht for 1891. The ar- 

 rangement is much more practical in the parts 

 treating of Chemistry and Pharmacy than in the 

 previous editions. It is to be regretted that a 

 work of such a high character has not an index 

 to facilitate its use.

 stracts of papers relating to Pharmacy, Materia

 and Foreign journals from July i, 1892, to June 

 30, 1893. 



This work appears this year much earlier than 

 usual, much to the gratification of all those who 

 consult such publications. As we have not seen 

 the present edition as yet we are not able to re- 

 view it. We understand that it contains ninety 

 pages less than the Yearbook for 1892, and that 

 like its predecessors represents the pharmaceu- 

 tical progress during the period to which it 

 relates.
