THE EAR, ITS ANATOMY, PHYSIOLOGY, AND DISEASES. 



A Practical Treatise for the Use of Medical Students and Practitioners. In one hand- 

 some octavo volume of 615 pages, with eighty-seven illustrations: cloth, $4 50; leather, 

 $5 50. (Just Ready.) 



Recent progress in the investigation of the structures of the ear, and advances made in the 

 modes of treating its diseases, wouldseem to render desirable a new work in which all the re- 

 sources of the most advanced science should be placed at the disposal of the practitioner. This 

 it ha? been the aim of Dr. Burnett to accomplish, and the advantages which he has enjoyed in 

 the special study of the subject are a guarantee that the result of his labors will prove of service 

 to the profession at large, as well as to the specialist in this department. 



Foremost among the numerous recent coutribu- medical student, and its study will well repay the 

 aural literature will b* ranked this work busy practitioner in the pleaeuie be will derive from 

 of Dr. Burnett. It is impossible to do justice to the agreeable style in which many otherwise dry 

 this volume of over 600 pages in a necessarily brief and mostly unknown subjects are treated. To the 

 notice. It must suffice to add that the book is pro- specialist the work is of the highest value, and bis 

 iud accurately illustrated, the references are sense of gratitude to Dr. Burnett will, we hope, be 

 conscientiously acknowledged, while the result has proportionate to the amount of benefit i.c can obtain 



been to produce a treatise which will henceforth 

 rank with the classic writings of Wilde and Von 

 Tiolsch. The Lond. I'raditiontr, May, 1S79 



On account of the great advances which have been 

 made of late years in otology, and of the increased 

 interest manifested in it, the medical profession will 

 welcome this new work, which presents clearly and 

 concisely its present aspect, whilst clearly indi- 

 cating the direction in which further researches can 

 b.> in.'t profitably carried on. Dr. Barn tt from his 

 own matured experience, and availing himaelf of : 

 the observations and discoveries of others, has pro- V 11 

 duced a work, which as a text-book, stands facile, 

 princfips in our language. We had marked several 

 well worthy of quotation and the atten- 



from the careful study of the book, and a constant 

 reference to its trustworthy pages. Edinbu <jh 

 Med. Jour., Aug. 1S7S. 



The book is designed especially for the use of >tu- 

 d'ints and general practitioners, and places at their 

 disposal much valuable material. Such a book as 

 the present one, we think, haslongbeen needed, and 

 we may congratulate the author on his success in 

 filling the gap. Both scudent and practitioner can 

 work with a great deal of benefit. It is 

 ely and beautifully illustrated. 2?. Y. Hot,-

Dr. Burnett is to be com mended for having written 

 the best book on the subject in the English language,

POISONS IN RELATION TO MEDICAL JURISPRUDENCE AND 



MEDICINE. Third American, from the Third and Revised English Edition. In one 

 large octavo volume of 850 pages ; cloth, $5 50 ; leather, $6 50. (Just Issued.) 



The present is based upon the two previous edi- 

 tions; ''but the complete re vision rendered necessary 

 by time has converted it into a new work." This 

 statement from the preface contains all that it is de- 

 sired to know in reference to the new edition. The 

 works of this author are already in the library of 

 every physician who is liable to be called upon for 

 medico-legal testimony (and wh t nei.> not?), sothat 

 all that is required to be known about the present 

 book is that the author has kept it abreast with the 

 times What makes it now, as always, especially 

 valuable to the practitioner is its conciseness and 



being described which give rise to legal iuvestiga- 

 tions. Tftc L'tinic, Sw. 6, 1875. 



Dr. Taylor hat brought to bear on the compilation 

 of this volume, stores of learning, experience, aiid 

 practical acquaintance with Ms subject., probably far 

 beyond what any other living authority on toxicol- 

 ogy could have amassed or utilized. He has fully 

 sustained his refutation by the consummate skill 

 and legal acumen he has displayed in the arrange- 

 ment of the subject-matter, and the result is a work 

 on Poisons which will be indispensable to every bt u- 

 deutor practitioner in law and medicine. Tkt Dut>-
