For some years past there has been a growing demand for something more 

 satisfactory and more practical in the way of literature on the subject of what 

 has, by common consent, come to be termed "Oxygen Therapeutics." On all 

 sides professional men of standing and ability are turning their attention to the 

 use of the gaseous elements about us as remedies in disease, as well as sustainers 

 in health. In prosecuting their inquiries, the first hindrance has been the want 

 of any reliable, or in any degree satisfactory, literature on the subject. 



This work, translated in the main from the French of Professor Demarquay, 

 contains also a very full account of recent English, German, and American ex- 

 periences, prepared by Dr. Samuel S. Wallian, of New York, whose experience 

 in this field antedates that of any other American writer on the subject. 



This is a handsome volume of 300 pages, in 

 large print, on good paper, and nicely illus- 

 trated. Although nominally pleading for the 

 use of oxygen inhalations, the author ishows in 

 a philosophical manner how much greater 

 good physicians might do if they more fully 

 appreciated the value of fresh air exercise and 

 water, especially in diseases of the lungs, kid- 

 neys, and skin. We commend its perusal to 

 our readers.— 27ie Canada Medical Record. 



The book should be widely read, for to many 

 it will bring the addition of a new weapon to 

 their therapeutic armament. — Northwestern 

 Lancet. 



Altogether the book is a valuable one, which 

 will be found of service to the busy prac- 

 titioner who wishes to keep abreast 'of the 

 improvements in therapeutics. — Medical 

 News.
