NOTICES OF THE PRESS. 



"This modest little book contains a statistical resume, by the author, of his sur- 

 gical experience in the hospital wards under his care during the year. He treats his 

 subject under the successive headings: Generalities, Fractures, Affections of the 

 Joints, Inflammation and Abscesses, Affections of the Lymphatic System, Burns and 

 Contusions, Affections of the Genito-Urinary Organs, Affections of the Aural Region, 

 Affections of the Eyes, Statistics of Operations. We have a special liking for such 

 works, which give us the most authoritative opinions of the elders of the medical pro- 

 fession, who have reached the time when the judgment is least biased by the rivalries 

 and personal influences which are so apt to mislead younger minds. It is o vastly 

 more value than many more ambitious and bulky works." Boston Medical and 

 Surgical Journal. 



" He hot unfrequently surprises us by the simplicity of his expedients for the aid 

 of ' Nature in Disease,' and rarely, if ever, fails in making out his case. As a whole, 

 the work is not only instructive, but entertaining, and may be regarded as one of oar 

 landmarks of minor surgery, upon our skill in which much of our success will be 

 found to depend." Medical Record. 



" It is rare that so small a book contains so many suggestions of great practical 

 worth, and throws so much light on certain debated points, as Velpeau's Lessons. 

 Though nominally a review of one year's practice, it is in reality an epitome of the 

 experience of a lifetime." Detroit Review. 



"All who value the teachings of this great man will not lose the opportunity of 

 obtaining them, as presented in this brief and economical form." Richmond Medi- 

 cal Journal.
