Hamilton's System of 



LEGAL MEDICINE 



[Complete in 2 Vols. 



A Complete work of 

 Reference for Medical 

 and Legal Practitioners 



By ALLAN flcLANE HAMILTON, M.D., 



Consulting Physician to the Insane Asylums of New York City, 



Assisted by LAWRENCE QODKIN, Esq., of the 

 New York Bar, and Others. 



Its list of thirty contributors includes the names of the 

 most distinguished writers arid authorities upon Medical 

 Jurisprudence in America. As a book of reference, with 



its 4000 citations 

 and cases, it will be 

 found an invaluable 

 help to medical men, 

 and to those of the 

 legal profession who 

 desire the aid of the 

 most advanced and 

 sound opinions of 

 practical students of 

 forensic medicine. 

 So much opprobri- 

 um has been attach- 

 mm ed to the word "ex- 

 pert," that it has 

 been the aim of the 

 Editor and his col- 

 leagues to give the 

 work a decided judicial and impartial tone, so that it may 

 be consulted with confidence by all as an authority of the 

 highest order. 



Short articles upon legal subjects by distinguished 

 members of the American Bar are a marked feature of the 

 work. The cases cited are recent, and chiefly American, 

 and up to date in theory and practice. 



THE WORK is complete in two large royal octavo 

 volumes of about seven hundred pages each, illustrated. 

 Fully Indexed by 3202 References. In cloth, per 

 volume, $5.50; full sheep, per volume, $6.50. 

 Sold by subscription. Sent carriage paid on receipt of price.
