A Treatise on Human Physiology. In one handsome octavo volume of 

 925 pages, with 605 fine engravings. Cloth, $5.50 ; leather, $6.50. 



It represents very fully the existing state of 

 physiology. The present work has a special value 

 to the student and practitioner as devoted more 

 to the practical application of well-known truths 

 which the advance of science has given to the 

 profession in this department, which may be con- 

 sidered the foundation of rational medicine. Buf- 

 falo Medical and Surgical Journal, Dec. 1887. 



Matters which have a practical bearing on the 

 practice of medicine are lucidly expressed; tech- 

 nical matters are given in minute detail; elabo- 

 rate directions are stated for the guidance of stu- 

 dents in the laboratory. In every respect the 

 work fulfils its promise, whether as a complete 

 treatise for the student or for the physician ; for 

 the former it is so complete that he need look no 



farther, and the latter will find entertainment and 

 instruction in an admirable book of reference. 

 North Carolina Medical Journal, Nov. 1887. 



The work certainly commends itself to both 

 student and practitioner. What is most demanded 

 by the progressive physician of to-day is an adap- 

 tation of physiology to practical therapeutics, and 

 this work is a decided improvement in this respect 

 over other works in the market. It will certainly 

 take place among the most valuable text-books.

It is the production of an author delighted with 

 his work, and able to inspire students with an en- 

 thusiasm akin to his own. American Practitioner

A Treatise on Human Physiology. Designed for the use of Students and 

 Practitioners of Medicine. Seventh edition, thoroughly revised and rewritten. In one 

 very handsome octavo volume of 722 pages, with 252 beautiful engravings on wood. Cloth. 

 $5.00; leather, $6.00. 



From the first appearance of the book it has 

 been a favorite, owing as well to the author's 

 renown as an oral teacher as to the charm of 

 simplicity with which, as a writer, he always 

 succeeds in investing even intricate subjects. 

 It must be gratifying to him to observe the fre- 



quency with which his work, written for students 

 and practitioners, is quoted by other writers on 

 physiology. This fact attests its value, and, in 

 great measure, its originality. It now needs no 

 such seal of approbation, however, for the thou- 

 sands who have studied it in its various editions 



have never been in any doubt as to its sterling- 

 worth.^. Y. Medical Journal, Oct. 1882. 



Professor Dalton's well-known and deservedly- 

 appreciated work has long passed the stage at 

 which it could be reviewed in the ordinary sense. 

 The work is eminently one for the medical prac- 

 titioner, since it treats most fully of those branches

of physiology which have a direct bearing on the 

 diagnosis and treatment of disease. The work is 

 one which we can highly recommend to all our 

 readers. Dublin Journal of Medical Science, Feb.'83_

A REVIEW OF THE FIFTH ENGLISH EDITION IS APPENDED. 



It is delightful to meet a book which deserves 

 only unqualified praise. Such a book is now before 

 us. It is in all respects an ideal text-book. With a 

 complete, accurate and detailed knowledge of his 

 subject, the author has succeeded in giving a 

 thoroughly consecutive and philosophic account 

 of the science. A student's attention is kept 

 throughout fixed on the great and salient ques- 



tions, and his energies are not frittered away and 

 degenerated on petty and trivial details. Review- 

 ing this volume as a whole we are justified in say- 

 ing that it is the only thoroughly good text-book 

 of physiology in the English language, and that il 

 is jarobably the best text-book in any language,

 ume of 509 pp., with 68 illustrations. Cloth, $1.50. See Students' Series of Manuals, p. 31.

Manual Of Chemistry. A Guide to Lectures and Laboratory work for Beginners 

 in Chemistry. A Text-book, specially adapted for Students of Pharmacy and Medicine. 

 New (second) edition. In one 8vo. vol. of 478 pp., with 44 woodcuts and 7 colored plates 

 illustrating 56 of the most important chemical tests. Cloth, $3.25. 



In this book the author has endeavored to meet 

 the wants of the student of medicine or pharmacy 

 in regard to his chemical studies, and he has suc- 

 ceeded in presenting his subject so clearly that no 

 one who really wishes to acquire a fair knowledge 

 of chemistry can fail to do so with the help of this 

 work. The largest section of the book is naturally 

 that devoted to the consideration of the carbon 

 compounds, or organic chemistry. An excellent 



feature is the introduction of a number of plates 

 showing the various colors of the most important 

 chemical reactions of the metallic salts, of some 

 of the alkaloids, and of the urinary tests. In the 

 part treating of physiological chemistry the section 

 on analysis of the urine will be found very practi- 

 cal, and well suited to the needs of the practitioner 

 of medicine. The Medical Record, May 25, 1889.
