Professor Hyde has long been known as one of 

 the most intelligent and enthusiastic representa- 

 tives of dermatology in the west. His numerous 



The author has given the student and practi- 

 tioner a work admirably adapted to the wants of 

 each. We can heartily commend the book as a 



valuable addition to our literature and a reliable 

 guide to students and practitioners in their studies 

 and practice. Am. Journ. of Med. Sci., July, 1883. 



The aim of the author has been to present to his 

 readers a work not only expounding the most 

 modern conceptions of his subject, but presenting 

 what is of standard value. He has more especially 

 devoted its pages to the treatment of disease, and 

 by his detailed descriptions of therapeutic meas- 

 ures has adapted them to the needs of the physi- 

 cian in active practice. In dealing with these 

 questions the author leaves nothing to the pre- 

 sumed knowledge of the reader, but enters thor- 

 oughly into the most minute description, so that 

 one is not only told what should be done under 

 given conditions but how to do it as well. It is 

 therefore in the best sense " a practical treatise." 

 That it is comprehensive, a glance at he index 

 will show. Maryland Medical Journal, July 7, 1883. 



contributions to the literature of this specialty 

 have gained for him a favorable recognition as a 

 careful, conscientious and original observer. He 

 has attempted, as he informs us, the task of pre- 

 senting in a condensed form the results of the 

 latest observation and experience. A careful ex- 

 amination of the work convinces us that he has 

 accomplished his task with painstaking fidelity 

 and with a creditable result. Journal of Cutaneous 

 and Venereal Diseases, June, 1883. 



The several diseases are described very con- 

 cisely, but at the same time with unusual clear- 

 ness. The treatment is given in the simplest man- 

 ner and apparently with great honesty. It is a 

 good book, remarkably adapted to the needs of 

 those for whom it was written. It should be at 

 once placed in the library of every general practi- 

 tioner. Detroit Lancet, April, 1883.

manual to lie upon the table for instant reference. 

 Its alphabetical arrangement is suited to this use, 



The third edition of this convenient handbook 

 calls for notice owing to the revision and expansion 

 which it has undergone. The arrangement of skin 

 diseases in alphabetical order, which is the method 

 of classification adopted in this work, becomes a 

 positive advantage to the student. The book is 

 one which we can strongly recommend, not only 

 to students but also to practitioners who require a 

 compendious summary of the present state of 

 dermatology. British Medical Journal, July 2, 1883. 



We cordially recommend Fox's Epitome to those 

 whose time is limited and who wish a handy 



for all one has to know is the name of the disease, 

 and here are its description and the appropriate 

 treatment at hand and ready for instant applica- 

 tion. The present edition has been very carefully 

 revised and a number of new diseases are de- 

 scribed, while most of the recent additions to 

 dermal therapeutics find mention, and the formu- 

 lary at the end of the book has been considerably 

 augmented. The Medical News, December, 1883.

for clearness of expression and methodical ar- 

 rangement is better adapted to promote a rational 

 conception of dermatology a branch confessedly 

 difficult and perplexing to the beginner.^. Louis 

 Courier of Medicine, April, 1880. 



The writer has certainly given in a small compass 

 a large amount of well-compiled information, and 



To physicians who would like to know something 

 about skin diseases, so that when a patient pre- 

 sents himself for relief they can make a correct 

 diagnosis and prescribe a rational treatment, we 

 unhesitatingly recommend this little book of Dr. 

 Morris. The affections of the skin are described 

 in a terse, lucid manner, and their several charac- 

 teristics so plainly set forth that diagnosis will be 

 easy. The treatment in each case is such as the 

 experience of the most eminent dermatologists ad- 

 vises. Cincinnati Medical News, April, 1880. 



This is emphatically a learner's book; for we 

 can safely say, that in the whole range of medical 

 literature there is no book of a like scope which 



his little book compares favorably with any other 

 which has emanated from England, while in many 

 points he has emancipated himself from the stub- 

 bornly adhered to errors of others of his country- 

 men. There is certainly excellent material in the 

 book which will well repay perusal. Boston Med. 

 and Surg. Journ., March, 1880.
