The American Illustrated Medical Dictionary defines hundreds of terms not 

 defined in any other dictionary bar none. It gives the capitalization and pro- 

 nunciation of all words. It makes a feature of the derivation or etymology of the 

 words. Every word has a separate paragraph, thus making it easy to find a 

 word quickly. The tables of arteries, muscles, nerves, veins, etc., are of the 

 greatest help in assembling anatomic facts. Every word is given its definition a 

 definition that defines in the fewest possible words. 



Howard A. Kelly, M. D., Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore. 



" The American Illustrated Dictionary is admirable. It is so well gotten up and of such 

 convenient size. No errors have been found in my use of it."

Dr. Owen's book is a complete treatment of emergencies. It gives you not 

 only the actual technic of the procedures, but, what is equally important, the un- 

 derlying principles of the treatments, and the reason why a particular method is 

 advised. You get treatments of fractures, of contusions, of wounds. Particularly 

 strong is the chapter on gun-shot wounds, which gives the new treatments that the 

 great European War has developed. You get the principles of hemorrhage, to- 

 gether with its constitutional and local treatments. You get chapters on sprains, 

 strains, dislocations, burns, sunburn, chilblain, asphyxiation, convulsions, hysteria, 

 apoplexy, exhaustion, opium poisoning, uremia, electric shock, bandages, and 

 a complete discussion of artificial respiration, including mechanical devices.
