BARTHOLOW, ROBERTS, A. M., M. D., LL. &., 



Prof, of Materia Me-dica and General Therapeutics in the Jefferson Med. Coll.. of Phila., etc. 

 Medical Electricity. A Practical Treatise on the Applications of Electricity 

 to Medicine and Surgery. New (third) edition. In one very handsome octavo volume of 

 308 pages, with 110 illustrations. Cloth, $2.50. Just ready. 



The fact that this work has reached its third edi- 

 tion in six years, and that it has been kept fully 

 abreast with the increasing use and knowledge of 

 electricity,demonstrates its claim to be considered 

 a practical treatise of tried value to the profession. 

 The matter added to the present edition embraces 

 the most recent advances in electrical treatment. 

 The illustrations are abundant and clear, and the 

 work constitutes a full, clear and concise manual 

 well adapted to the needs of both student and 

 practitioner. The Medical Newt, May 14, 1887. 



This "practical treatise on the applications of 

 electricity to medicine and surgery" has grown to 

 be so important a work that every practitioner 



should read it, especially when it ia recalled what 

 possibilities lie in the path of the further study of 

 the therapeutics of electricity. Dr. Barthplow has 

 here presented the profession with a concise work 

 that, beginning with elementary descriptions and 

 principles, gradually grows, page by page, into a 

 magnificently practical treatise, describing opera- 

 tions in detail, and giving records of successes 

 that prove electricity to be marvellous as a curative 

 agent in many forms of disease. The doctor can- 

 not now do better than to possess himself of Dr. 

 Bartholow's treatise, just as it is. Virginia Medi- 

 cal Monthly, June, 18b7. 



RICHARDSON, B. W., M.A., M.D., LL. !>., F.R.S., F.S.A. 



Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, London. 



Preventive Medicine. In one octavo volume of 729 pages. Cloth, $4; leather, 

 $5 ; very handsome half Russia, raised bands, $5.50. 



Dr. Richardson has succeeded in producing a 

 work which is elevated in conception, comprehen- 

 sive in scope, scientific in character, systematic in 

 arrangement, and which is written in a clear, con- 

 cise and pleasant manner. He evinces the happy 

 faculty of extracting the pith of what is known on 

 the subject, and of presenting it in a most simple, 

 intelligent and practical form. There is perhaps 

 no similar work written for the general public 

 thatcontains such acorn plete, reliable and instruc- 



tive collection of data upon the diseases common 

 to the race, their origins, causes, and the measures 

 lor their prevention. The descriptions of diseases 

 are clear, chaste and scholarly; the discussion of 

 the question ol disease is comprehensive, masterly 

 and fully abreast with the latest and best knowl- 

 edge on the subject, and the preventive measures 

 advised are accurate, explicit and reliable. The 

 American Journal of the Medical Sciences, April, 1884.
