MILLER (JAMES), F. R. S. E., 



Professor of Surgery in the University of Edinburgh, &c. 



PRINCIPLES OF SURGERY. Third American, from the second and revised 

 Edinburgh edition. Revised, with Additions, by F. W. SARGENT, M. D., author of " Minor Sur- 

 gery," &c. In one large and very beautiful volume, of seven hundred and fifty-two pages, with 

 two hundred and forty exquisite illustrations on wood. 



The publishers have endeavored to render the present edition of this work, in every point of me- 

 chanical execution, worthy of its very high reputation, and they confidently present it te the pro- 

 fession as one of the handsomest volumes as yet issued in this country. 



This edition is far superior, both in the abundance 

 and quality of its material, to any of the preceding. 

 We hope it will be extensively read, and the sound 

 principles which are herein taught treasured up for 

 future application. The work takes rank with 

 Watson's Practice of Physic; it certainly does not 

 fall behind that great work in soundness of princi- 

 ple or depth of reasoning and research. No physi- 

 cian who values his reputation, or seeks the interests 

 of his clients, can acquit himself before his God and 

 the world without making himself familiar with the 

 sound and philosophical views developed in the fore- 

 oing book. New Orleans Medical and Surgical 



guage. This opinion, deliberately formed after a 

 careful study of the first edition, we have had no 

 cause to change on examining the second. This 

 edition has undergone thorough revision by the au- 

 thor; many expressions have been modified, and a 

 mass of new matter introduced. The hook is got up 

 in the finest style, and is an evidence of the progress 

 of typography in our country. Charleston Medical

We recommend it to both student and practitioner, 

 feeling assured that as it now comes to us, it pre-

 doctrines of the principles of surgery to be found in

THE PRACTICE OF SURGERY. Third American from the second Edin- 

 burgh edition. Edited, with Additions, by F. W. SARGENT, M. D , one of the Surgeons to Will's 

 Hospital, &c. Illustrated by three hundred and nineteen engravings on wood. In one large 

 octavo volume, of over seven hundred pages. 

 This new edition will be found greatly improved and enlarged, as well by the addition of much 



new matter as by the introduction of a large and complete series of handsome illustrations. An 



equal improvement exists in the mechanical execution of the work, rendering it in every respect 



a companion volume to the "Principles." 



No encomium of ours could add to the popularity 

 of Miller's Surgery. Its reputation in this country 

 is unsurpassed by that of any other work, and, when 

 taken in connection with the author's Principles of 

 Surgery, constitutes a whole, without reference to 

 which no conscientious surgeon would be willing 

 to practice his art. The additions, by Dr. Sargent, 

 have materially enhanced the value of the work.

It is seldom that two volumes have ever made so 

 profound an impression in so short a time as the 

 "Principles" and the "Practice" of Surgery by 

 Mr. Miller or so richly merited the reputation they 

 have acquired. The author is an eminently sensi- 

 ble, practical, and well-informed man, who knows 

 exactly what he is talking about and exactly how to 

 talk it. Kentucky Medical Recorder. 



The two volumes together form a complete exposfe 

 of the present state of Surgery, and they ought to be 



on the shelves of every surgeon.

N. J. Med. Re- 



By the almost unanimous voice of the profession, 

 his works, both on the principles and practice of 

 surgery have been assigned the highest rank. If we 

 were limited to but one work on surgery, that one 



should be Miller's, as we re 

 others. St. Louis Med. and

The author distinguished alike as a practitioner 

 and writer, has in this and his " Principles," pre- 

 sented to the profession one of the most complete and 

 reliable systems of Surgery extant. His style of 

 writing is original, impressive, and engaging, ener- 

 getic, concise, and lucid. Few have the faculty of 

 condensing so much in small space, and at the same 

 time so persistently holding the attention; indeed, 

 he appears to make the very process oY condensation 

 a means of eliminating attractions. Whether as a 

 text-book for students or a book of reference for 

 practitioners, it cannot be too strongly recommend-
