TJHIS book bears to Gould and Pyle's large "Cyclopedia of Medicine 

 I and Surgery ' ' a relation similar to that which the Pocket Dic- 

 tionary bears to Gould's complete "Illustrated Dictionary." As 

 the Dictionary gives the derivation, pronunciation, and definition 

 of medical words, the Cyclopedia is designed to furnish general 

 information concerning medical subjects. Every subject, concerning which 

 the student may desire a brief and thorough description, supplementing the 

 mention which may be given in lectures or a general text-book, is taken up 

 and treated thoroughly and concisely. To those desiring concise authoritative 

 information on medical or surgical themes or who wish to look up any new 

 term or matter of recent discovery and use, the book will prove invaluable. 

 It includes articles on Emergencies, Hygiene, Poisons, Nursing, etc.; describes 

 Drugs and their Uses ; gives Treatment of Diseases ; explains Surgical Oper- 

 ations ; contains many Prescriptions and Formulae, Tables of Differential 

 Diagnosis, Dose Table in both English and Metric Systems, etc.
