The Publishers are in receipt of numerous letters from Professors in the various Med- 

 ical Schools, uniformly commending this book ; whilst the following extracts from the 

 Medical Press, both English and American, fully attest its superiority and great value 

 not only to the student, but also to the busy practitioner. 



This is a good book, yea, a very good book. It is not so full in its Pathology as " Aitken," 

 so charming in its composition as " Watson," nor so decisive in its treatment as " Tanner; " 

 but it is more compendious than any of them, and therefore more useful. We know of no 

 other work in the English language, or in any other, for that matter, which competes with 

 this one. Edinburgh Medical Journal. 



We have much pleasure in expressing our sense of the author's conscientious anxiety to 

 make his work a faithful representation of modern medical beliefs and practice. In this he 

 has succeeded in a degree that will earn the gratitude of very many students and practition- 

 ers: it is a remarkable evidence of industry, experience,. and research. Practitioner. 



That Dr. Roberta's book is admirably fitted to supply the want of a good hand-book of 

 medicine, so much felt by every medical student, does not admit of a question. Students 1 

 Journal and Hospital Gazette. 



Dr. Roberts has accomplished his task in a satisfactory manner, and has produced a work 

 mainly intended for students that will be cordially welcomed by them ; most of the observa- 

 tions on treatment are carefully written and worthy of attentive study ; the arrangement is 

 good, and the style clear and simple. London Lancet. 



It contains a vast deal of capital instruction for the student, much valuable matter in it to 

 commend, and merit enough to insure for it a rapid sale. London Medical Times and Gazette. 



There are great excellencies in this book, which will make it a favorite both with the 

 accurate student and busy practitioner. The author has had ample experience. Richmond 

 and Louisville Journal. 



We confess ourselves most favorably impressed with this work. The author has performed 

 his task most creditably, and we cordially recommend the book to our readers. Canada 

 Medical and Surgical Journal. 



A careful reading of the book has led us to believe that the author has written a work 

 more nearly up to the times than any -that we have seen ; to the student, it will be a gift of 

 priceless value. Detroit Review of Medicine. 



Our opinion of it is one of almost unqualified praise. The style is clear, and the amount of 

 useful and, indeed, indispensable information which it contains is marvellous. We heartily 

 recommend it to students, teachers, and practitioners. Boston Med. and Surgical Journal. 



It is of a much higher order than the usual compilations and abstracts placed in the hands 

 of students. It embraces many suggestions and hints from a carefully compiled hospital 

 experience ; the style is clear and concise, and the plan of the work very judicious. Medical 

 and Surgical Reporter. 



It is unsurpassed by any work that has fallen into our hands as a compendium for students 

 preparing for examination. It is thoroughly practical and fully up to the times. The Clinic. 



We find it an admirable book. Indeed, we know of no hand-book on the subject just now 

 to be preferred to it. We particularly commend it to students about to enter upon the 

 practice of their profession. St. Louis Medical and Surgical Journal. 



If there is a book in the whole of medical literature in which so much is said in so 

 few words, it has never come within our reach. So clear, terse, and pointed is the style ; 

 so accurate the diction, and so varied the matter of this book, that it is almost a dictionary 

 of practical medicine. Chicago Medical Journal. 



The author's style is clear, concise, and methodical. Chicago Medical Examiner. 



Dr. Roberts has given us a work of real value, and especially for the use of students is 

 the book a good one. Lancet and Observer.
