This excellent and very valuable book is one of 

 the most satisfactory works on modern operative 

 surgery yet published. Its author and publisher 

 have spared no pains to make it as far as possible 

 an ideal, and their efforts have given it a position 

 prominent among the recent works in this depart- 

 ment of surgery. The book is a compendium for 

 the modern surgeon. The present, the only revised 

 edition since 1879, presents many changes from 

 the original manual. The volume is much en- 

 larged, and the text has been thoroughly revised, 

 so as to give the most improved methods in asep- 



tic surgery, and the latest instruments known for 

 operative work. It can be truly said that as a hand- 

 book for the student, a companion for the surgeon, 

 and even as a book of reference for the physician 

 not especially engaged in the practice or surgery, 

 this volume will long hold a most conspicuous 

 place, and seldom willits readers, no matter how 

 unusual the subject, consult its pages in vain. Its 

 compact form, excellent print, numerous illustra- 

 tions, and especially its decidedly practical char- 

 acter, all combine to commend it. Boston Medical 

 and Surgical Journal, May 10, 1888.

 Lecturer on Surgery at St. George's Hospital, London, In one octavo volume of 997 

 pages, with 428 illustrations. Cloth, $6 ; leather, $7. 



To the younger members of the profession and 

 to others not acquainted with the book and its 

 merits, we take pleasure in recommending it as a 



surgery complete, thorough, well-written, 

 illustrated, modern, a work sufficiently volumi- 

 nous for the surgeon specialist, adequately concise 



for the general practitioner, teaching those things 

 that are necessary to be known for the successful 

 prosecution of the physician's career, imparting 

 nothing that in our present knowledge is consid- 

 ered unsafe, unscientific or inexpedient. Pacific 

 Medical Journal, July, 1889.

A Practical Treatise on Fractures and Dislocations. New (8th) edi- 

 tion, revised and edited by STEPHEN SMITH, A. M., M. D., Professor of Clinical Surgery 

 in the University of the City of New York. In one very handsome octavo volume of 832 

 pages, with 507 illustrations. Cloth, $5.50 ; leather, $6.50. Just ready. 



It has received the highest endorsement that a | tioner, in his character as a surgeon, is most called 

 work upon a department of surgery can possibly ! upon to treat. They form a part of surgery that 

 receive. It is used as a' text-book in every medi j he cannot avoid taking charge of. Under the 



circumstances, therefore, he needs all the aid he 

 can secure. But what better assistance can he 

 seek than a work that is devoted exclusively to 

 treating fractures and dislocations, and conse- 

 quently contains full information, in plain lan- 

 guage, for the management of every emergency 

 that is likely to be met with in such injuries? 

 The country is filled with railroads and manufac- 

 tories where accidents are constantly occurring, 

 and to which general practitioners, and not dis- 

 tinguished surgeons, are constantly liable to be 

 called. We consider that the work before us 

 should be in the library of every practitioner.

cal college of this country, and the publishers 

 have been called upon to print eight editions of it. 

 What more can be said in commendation of it? 

 It has been said with truth that it is doubtful if 

 any surgical work has appeared during the last 

 half century which more completely filled the 

 place for which it was designed. As Dr. Smith 

 says, its great merits appear most conspicuously 

 in its clear, concise, and yet comprehensive state- 

 ment of principles, which renders it an admirable 

 text- book for teacher and pupil, and in its wealth 

 of clinical materials, which adapts it to the daily 

 necessities of the practitioner. Fractures and 

 dislocations are injuries which the general practi-

A Manual of Operative Surgery. New (second) edition. In one - 

 some royal 12mo. volume of 503 pages, with 342 illustrations. Cloth, $2.50. 



There is always room for a good book, so that 

 while many works on operative surgery must be 

 considered superfluous, that of Dr. Stimson has 

 held its own. The author knows the difficult art 

 of condensation. Thus the manual serves as a 

 work of reference, and at the same time as a 

 handy guide. It teaches what it professes, the 

 steps of operations. In this edition Dr. Stimson 

 has sought to indicate the changes that have been 



effected in operative methods and procedures by 

 the antiseptic system, and has added an account 

 of many new operations and variations in the 

 steps of older operations. We do not desire to 

 extol this manual above many excellent standard 

 British publications of the same class, still we be- 

 lieve that it contains much that is worthy of imi- 

 tation. British Medical Journal, Jan. 22, 1887.

The appearance of the second volume marks the of Dislocations as it is taught and practised by the

 him to have it for constant reference. Cincinnati
