DALTON, JR. (J. C.), M. D. 



Professor of Physiology in the College of Physicians, New York. 



A TREATISE ON HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY, designed for the use of Students 



and Practitioners of Medicine. Third edition, revised, with nearly three hundred illustrations 



on wood. In one very beautiful octavo volume, of 700 pages, extra cloth, $4 50. (Just Ready ,

The rapid demand for another edition of this work sufficiently shows that the author has suc- 

 ceeded in his efforts to produce a text-book of standard and permanent value, embodying- within 

 a moderate compass all that is definitely and positively known within the domain of Human 

 Physiology. His high reputation as an original observer and investigator, is a guarantee that in 

 again revising it he has introduced whatever is necessary to render it thoroughly on a level with 

 the advanced science of the day, and this has been accomplished without unduly increasing the 

 size of the volume. 



No exertion has been spared to maintain the high standard of typographical execution which has 

 rendered this work admittedly one of the handsomest volumes as" yet produced in this country. 



It will be seen, therefore, that Dr. Dalton's best own original views and experiments, together with 

 efforts have been directed towards perfecting his a desire to supply what he considered some deficien- 

 work. The additions are marked by the same fea- cies in the first edition, have already made the pre- 

 tures which characterize the remainder of the vol- sent one a necessity, and it will no doubt be even 

 Hine, and render it by far the most desirable text- more eagerly sought for than the first. That it in

 student which, so far as we are aware, exists in statement of the following principal additions and

 their use than any other work of the kind to which their author intended. Boston Medical and Surgi-

It is unnecessary to give a detail of the additions ; 

 suffice it to say, that they are numerous and import- 

 ant, and such as will render the work still more
