[From the Doctor, London, June, 1872.] 



" Although much has been written on the subject, Drs. Clarke and Amory have 

 succeeded in adding a really valuable little volume to practical Therapeutics." 



[from the St. Louis Medical and Surgical Journal, August, 1872.] 

 " We regard it as a very valuable contribution to medical science, based on careful 

 experiments and clinical observation. Every practitioner should read it." 



[From the American Journal of Insanity, July, 1872.] 



" We commend the work to those engaged in treating diseases of the nervous sys- 

 tem, and to the profession generally." 



{From the Richmond and Louisville Medical Journal, June, 1872.] 

 "This little work can be fully recommended: it costs little ; it is concise, lucid, 

 physiologically and therapeutically instructive; embodies much if not all of the val- 

 uable material scattered over the vast field of Journalism ; it is pleasantly written, 

 well printed, and well bound." 



[From the A merican Journal of Pharmacy, June, 1872.] 

 "The medical literature in both essays has been extensively consulted, criticallj 

 examined, and carefully compared with the experiments and observations of tU 

 authors ; thus many interesting facts have been established which must prove vei^ 

 valuable to the medical practitioner." 



[From the Philadelphia Medical Times for June, 1872.] 



"Given a pure drug, the physiologist experiments with it upon man and animals, 

 carefully noting its absorption, its elimination, its action while in the economy, and 

 deducts certain conclusions, which he places in the hands of the therapeutist, who, not 

 forgetting the changes produced by a pathological condition, is guided by them in the 

 treatment of disease. Judging by this standard, we pronounce the book before us to 

 be a model. We thank Drs. Clarke and Amory for their contribution, and express a 

 hope that the supply of such books may, like Tennyson's brook, ' go on for ever.' "
