Dr. Tanner's work on the Practice of Medicine is so well known in this country, and 

 Las had such an extensive and rapid sale, that it seems almost unnecessary to say any- 

 thing in reference to it; the present edition, however, contains such substantial addi- 

 tions and alterations as almost to constitute it a new work, and from being a com- 

 paratively small volume it now forms a handsome octavo of nearly 1000 pages ; all 

 that was useful and practical in the smaller volume has been retained and much new 

 matter added, written in the same condensed and easy style. 



"The leading feature of this book is its essentially practical character. Dr. Tanner has prodnced a more 

 complete System of Medicine than any with which we are acquainted. It is the result of long experience and 

 hard practice, and it is therefore valuable aa a guide, and trustworthy as an exemplar." — jliondon Lanctt. 



Tanner's Practical Treatise on the Diseases 

 of Infancy and Childhood. 



Octavo. 



This book differs from other works of the kind, in embracing a wider range of sub- 

 jects than is usually contained in treatises on children's diseases ; besides the ordinary 

 complaints of those subjects, it includes many affections which, though common to 

 adults and children, yet oifer some modification in form, or in the indications for treat- 

 ment, when occurring in the latter. Thus, we have an account of diseases of the eye, 

 ear, and skin, of small-pox, scrofula, tuberculosis, syphilis, bronchocele, and cretinism, 

 diseases of the kidneys and genital organs, and some of the accidents common to child- 

 hood. The style of the work is condensed, and the book might with truth be called 

 a manual, rather than a treatise, but there is nothing superficial about it; — every- 

 thing really important is given, while the discussion of disputed subjects, p.nd, in 

 fact, of everything which is not of practical importance in the study and treatment of 

 children's diseases, is omitted.

 ment.

"Dr. Tanner has been peculiarly happy in appreciating and supplying the wants of the Profession. His 

 Index of Diseases gives the derivation of words after the manner of a good Medical Dictionary; an outline of 

 every disease, including many surgical diseases, with their symptoms and mode of treatment; an admirable 

 eoUectiuu of Formulaj, and an account of the climates of the various parts of the world suitable for invalids. It 

 also contains at the beginning of the work a tabular synopsis of subjects, which does double duty at once, a 

 Nosology and an index. It will be found a moat valuable companion to the jutUcioue i)rac'tilioDer." — Lancet.
