including the Chemistry of the U. S. Pharmacopoeia. A Manual of the General Principles 

 of the Science, and their Application to Medicine and Pharmacy. Fifth Edition, revised

 (Lately Issued.) 



No other American publication with which we are 

 acquainted covers the same ground, or does it so well. 

 In addition to an admirable expose" of th facts and 

 principles of general elementary chemistry, the au- 

 thor has presented us with a condensed mass of prac- 

 tical matter, just such as the medical student and 

 practitioner needs. Cincinnati Lancet, Mar. 1874. 



We commend the work heartily as one of the best 

 text-books extant for the medical student. Detroit 

 Rev. of Med. and Pharm., Feb. 1872. 



The best work of the kind in the English language. 

 N. T. Psychological Journal, Jan. 1872. 



The work is constructed with direct reference to 

 the wants of medical and pharmaceutical students; 

 and, although an English work, the points 'of differ- 

 ence' between the British and United States Pharma- 

 copoeias are indicated, making it as useful here as in 

 England. Altogether, the book is one we can heart- 

 ily recommend to practitioners as well as students. 

 N. Y. Med. Journal, Dec. 1871. 



It differs from other text-books in the following 

 particulars: first, in the exclusion of matter relating 

 to compounds which, at present, are only of interest 

 to the scientific chemist; secondly, in containing the 

 chemistry of every substance recognized officially or 

 in general, as a remedial agent. It will be found a 

 most valuable book for pupils, assistants, and others 



engaged in medicine and pharmacy, and we heartily 

 commend it to our readers. Canada Lancet, Oct. 

 1871. 



When the original English edition of this work was 

 published, we had occasion to express our high ap- 

 preciation of its worth, and also to review, in con- 

 siderable detail, the main features of the book. As 

 the arrangement of subjects, and the main part of 

 the text of the present edition are similar to the for- 

 mer publication, it will be needless for us to go over 

 the ground a second time ; we may, however, call at- 

 tention to a marked advantage possessed by the Ame- 

 rican work we allude to the introduction of the 

 chemistry of the preparations of the United States 

 Pharmacopoeia, as well as that relating to the Britisli 

 authority. Canadian Pharmaceutical Journal, 

 Nov. 1871. 



Chemistry has borne the name of being ahard sub- 

 ject to master by the student of medicine, am), 

 chiefly because so much of it consists of compounds 

 only of interest to the scientific chemist ; in this work 

 such portions are modified or altogether left out, and 

 in the arrangement of the subject-matter of the work, 

 practical utility is sought after, and we think fully 

 attained. We commend it for its clearness and ord&r 

 to both teacher and pupil. Oregon Med. and Surg. 

 Reporter, Oct. 1871.

A MANUAL OF ELEMENTARY CHEMISTRY; Theoretical and

 tenth and revised London edition. Edited by ROBERT BRIDGES, M. D. In one large 

 royal 12mo. volume, of about 850 pp., cloth, $2 75 ; leather, S3 25. (Lately Issued.) 

 This work is so well known that it seems almost other work that has greater claims on the physician,

 Issued.) 



The success which has carried this work through repeated editions in England, and its adoption 

 as a text-book in several of the leading institutions in this country, show that the author has suo- 

 oeeded in the endeavor to produce a sound practical manual and book of reference for the che- 

 mical student. 



Prof. Galloway's books are deservedly in high 

 esteem, and this American reprint of the fifth edition 

 (1869) of his Manual of Qualitative Analysis, will be 

 acceptable to many Amer^pan students to whom the 

 English edition is not accessible. Am. Jour, of Sci- 

 tnc6 and Arts, Sept. 1872. 



We regard this volume as a valuable addition to 

 the chemical text-books, and as particularly calcu- 

 lated to instruct the student in analytical researches 

 of the inorganic compounds, the important vegetable 

 acids, and of compounds and various secretions and 

 excretions of animal origin. Am. Journ. 

 Sept. 1873.
