 The words which follow " fifth edition" are in j vious one. As a book of reference for the busy 

 this case no mere formal announcement. The j practitioner it is unequalled. Boston Medical and 



alterations and additions which have been made are 

 both numerous and important. The attraction 

 and the permanent character of this book lie in 

 the clearness and truth of the clinical descriptions 

 of diseases; the fertility of the author in thera- 

 peutic resources and the fulness with which the 

 details of treatment are described; the definite 

 character of the teaching; and last, but not least, 

 the evident candor which pervades it. We woula 

 also particularize the fulness with which the his- 

 tory of the subject is gone into, which makes the 

 book additionally interesting and gives it value as 

 a work of reference. London Medical Times and 

 Gazette, July 30, 1881. 



The determination of the author to keep his 

 book foremost in the rank of works on gynaecology 

 is most gratifying. Recognizing the fact that this 

 can only be accomplished by frequent and thor- 

 ough revision, he has spared no pains to make the 

 present edition more desirable even than the pre- 



Surgicnl Journal, April 7, 1880. 



It has been enlarged and carefully revised. It is 

 a condensed encyclopaedia of gynoecological medi- 

 cine. The style of arrangement, the masterly 

 manner in which each subject is treated, and the 

 honest convictions derived from probably the 

 largest clinical experience in that specialty of any 

 in this country, all serve to commend it in the 

 highest terms to the practitioner. Nashville Jour. 

 ofMed. and Surg., Jan. 1881. 



That the previous editions of the treatise of Dr. 

 Thomas were thought worthy of translation into 

 German, French, Italian and Spanish, is enough 

 to give it the stamp of genuine merit. At home it 

 has made its way into the library of every obstet- 

 rician and gynaecologist as a safe guide to practice. 

 No small number of additions have been made to 

 the present edition to make it correspond to re- 

 cent improvements in treatment. Pacific Medical 

 and Surgical Journal, Jan. 1881.

It is a pleasure to read a book so thoroughly i The greatest pains have been taken with the 

 good as this one. The special qualities which are j sections relating to treatment. A liberal selection

 and con- j the strength, mode of application and other 



ciseness of statement. Another marked feature of i being fully explained. The descriptions of gynie- 

 the book is the attention paid to the details of j cological manipulations and operations are full, 

 many minor surgical operations and procedures, j clear and practical. Much care has also been be- 

 as, for instance, the use of tents, application of i stowed on the parts of the book which deal with 

 leeches, and use of hot water injections. These diagnosis we note especially the pages dealing 



are among the more common methods of treat- 

 ment, and yet very little is said about them in 

 many of the text-books. The book is one to be 

 warmly recommended especially to students and 

 general practitioners, who need a concise but com- 

 plete resume of the whole subject. Specialists, too, 

 will find many useful hints in its pages. Boston 

 Med. and Sury. Journ., March 2, 1882. 



with the differentiation, one from another, of the 

 different kinds of abdominal tumors. The prac- 

 titioner will therefore find in this book the kind 

 of knowledge he most needs in his daily work, and 

 he will be pleased with the clearness and fulness 

 of the information there given. The I'ractitioner,
