A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON FRACTURES AND DISLOCA- 

 TIONS. Fifth edition, revised and improved. In one large and handsome octavo volume 

 of nearly 800 pages, with 344 illustrations. Cloth, $5 75: leather, $ 75. (Lately Issued.) 

 This work is well known, abroad as well as at home, as the highest authority on its important 

 subject an authority recognized in the courts as well as in the schools and in practice and 

 again manifested, not only by the demand for a fifth edition, but by arrangements now in pro- 

 grt'ss f.r the speedy appearance of a translation in Germany. The repeated' revisions which the 

 author has thus had the opportunity of making have enabled him to give the most careful consid- 

 eration to every portion of the volume, and he has sedulously endeavored in the present issue, 

 to perfect the work by the aid of his own enlarged experience, and to incorporate in it whatever 

 of value has been added in this department since the issue of the fourth edition. It will there- 

 fore be found considerably improved in matter, while the most careful attention has been paid 

 to the typographical execution, and the volume is presented to the profession in the confident 

 hope that it will more than maintain its very distinguished reputation. 



There is no better work on the subject in existence 

 than that of Dr. Hamilton. It should be in the posses- 

 sion of every irener.-i) practitioner and surgeon. The

The value of a work like this to the practical physi- 

 cian and surgeon can hardly be over-estimated, and the 

 necessity of havinir such a book revised to the latest 

 dates, not merely on account of the practical importance 



of its teachings, but also by reason of the medico-legal 

 bearings of the cases of which it treats, and which have 

 recently been the subject of usefulpapers by Dr Hamil- 

 ton and others, is sufficiently obvious to every one. The 

 present volume seems to amply fill all the requisites. 

 We can safely recommend it as th'e best of its kind in 

 the English language, and not excelled in any other

This capital little work should be in the hands of

 general practitioner. Its explanation of the optical 

 principles on which the ophthalmoscope is founded, 

 is so clear and simple that the most stupid reader 



satisfactory are the directions for the use of tl.e in

A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON DISEASES OF THE EYE. Edit- 

 ed, with test-types and Additions, by JOHN GREEN, M.D. (of St. Louis, Mo.). In one 

 handsome octavo volume of about 500 pages, and 124 illustrations. Cloth, $3 75. (Just 

 Issued.) 

 It would be difficult for Mr. Carier to write an unin- i manner, easy of comprehension, and hence the more 



structive book, and impossible for him to write an un- 

 interesting one. Even on subjects with which he is not 

 bound to be familiar, hecan discourse with a rare degree 



of clearness and elfect. Our readers will therefore not author is particularly clear and practical, where other 



b<- surprised to \earn that a work by him on the Diseases 

 ot the tive makes a very valuable addition to ophthal- 

 mic literature. . . . The book will remain one useful 

 alike to the general and the special practitioner. Lon- 

 don Lancet, Oct. 30,1875. 



It is with great pleasure that we can endorse the work 

 as a most valuable contribution to practical ophthal- 

 mology. Mr. Carter never deviates from the end he has 

 in view, and presents the subject in a clear and concise 



valuable. We would especially commend, however, as 

 worthy of high praise, the manner in which the thera- 

 peutics of disease of the eye is elaborated, for here the 



writers are unfortunately too often deficient. The tiual 

 chapter is devoted to a discussion of the u.sesand selec- 

 tion of spectacles, and is admirably compact, plain, and 

 useful, especially the paragraphs on the treatment of 

 presbyopia and myopia. In conclusion, our thanks are 

 due the author for many useful hints in the great sub- 

 ject of ophthalmic surgery and therapeutics, a field 

 where of late years we glean but a few grains of sourd 

 wheat from a mass of chaff Ifew York Altdical l\n-<,rrf,
