CARPENTER (WILLIAM B.), M. D., F. R. S., 



Examiner in Physiology and Comparative Anatomy in the University of London. 



ELEMENTS (OR MANUAL) OF PHYSIOLOGY, INCLUDING PHYSIO- 

 LOGICAL ANATOMY. Second American, from a new and revised London edition. With 

 one hundred and ninety illustrations. In one very handsome octavo volume, pp. 566. 



In publishing the first edition of this work, its title was altered from that of the London volume, 

 by the substitution of the word "Elements 1 ' for that of " Manual," and with the author's sanction 

 the title of " Elements" is still retained as being more expressive of the scope of the treatise. 



To say that it is the best manual of Physiology 

 now before the public, would not do sufficient justice 

 to the author. Buffalo Medical Journal. 



In his former works it would seem that he had 

 exhausted the subject of Physiology. In the present, 

 he gives the essence, as it were, of the whole. N. Y. 

 Journal of Medicine. 



Those who have occasion for an elementary trea- 

 tise on Physiology, cannot do better than to possess 

 themselves of the manual of Dr. Carpenter. Medical 

 Examiner. 



The best and most complete expos6 of modern 

 Physiology, in one volume, extant in the English 

 language. St. Louis Medical Journal. 



With such an aid in his hand, there is no excuse 

 for the ignorance often displayed respecting the suh- 

 jects of which it treats. From its unpretending di- 

 mensions, it may not be so esteemed by those anxious 

 to make a parade of their erudition; but whoever 

 masters its contents will liave reason to be proud of 

 his physiological acquirements. The illustrations 

 are well selected and finely executed. Dublin Med. 

 Press. 



BY THE SAME AUTHOR. ^(Preparing.) 



THE MICROSCOPE AND ITS REVELATIONS. In one handsome volume, 



with several hundred beautiful illustrations. 



Various literary engagements have delayed the author's progress with this long expected work. 

 It is now, however, in an advanced state of preparation, and may be expected in a lew months. 

 The importance which the microscope has assumed within the last few years, both as a guide to 

 the practising physician who wishes to avail himself of the progress of his science, and as an indis- 

 pensable assistant to the physiological and pathological observer, has caused the want to be severely 

 lelt of a volume which should serve as a guide to the learner and a book of reference to the more 

 advanced student. This want Dr. Carpenter has endeavored to supply in the present volume. His 

 great practical familiarity wilh tbe instrument and all its uses, and his acknowledged ability as a 

 teacher, are a sufficient guarantee that the work will prove in every way admirably adapted to its 

 purpose, and superior to any as yet presented to the scientific world.

 A DISPENSATORY; or. Commentary on the Pharmacopeias of Great Britain 



and the United States ; comprising the Natural History, Description, Chemistry, Pharmacy, Ac- 

 tions, Uses, and Doses of the Articles of the Materia Medica. Second edition, revised and im- 

 proved, with a Supplement containing the most important New Remedies. With copious Addi- 

 tions, and two hundred and thirteen large wood-engraving*. By R. EGLESFELD GRIFFITH, M. D. 

 In one very large and handsome octavo volume, of over 1000 pages. 



It is not needful that ws should compare it with 

 the other pharmacopoeias extant, which enjoy and 

 merit the confidence of the profession : it is enough 

 to say that it appears to us as perfect as a Dispensa- 

 tory, in the present state of pharmaceutical science, 

 could be made. If it omits any details pertaining to 

 this branch of knowledge which the student has a 

 right to expect in such a work, we confess the omis- 

 sion has escaped our scrutiny. We cordially recom- 

 mend this work to such of our readers as are in need 

 of a Dispensatory. They cannot make choice of a 

 better. Wistim Journ. of Medicine and Surgery. 



There is not in any language a more complete and 

 perfect Treatise. N. Y. Annalist. 



In conclusion, we need scarcely say that we 

 strongly recommend this work to all classes of our 

 readers. As a Dispensatory and commentary on the 

 Pharmacopoeias, it is unrivalled in the English or 

 any other language. The Dublin Quarterly Journal . 



We earnestly recommend Dr. Christison's Dis- 

 pensatory to all our readers, as an indispensable 

 companion, not in the Study only, but in the Surgery 

 also. British and Foreign Medical Review.
