BEST IN 

 EXISTENCE 



FOR THE 

 PRACTITIONER 



It is universally acknowledged that the Germans lead the world in Internal Medicine; and 

 of all the German works on this subject, Nothnagel's " Specielle Pathologic und Therapie" 

 is conceded by scholars to be without question the best Practice 

 of Medicine in existence. So necessary is this book in the study 

 of Internal Medicine that it comes largely to this country in the 

 original German. In view of these facts, Messrs. W. B. Saunders & 

 Company have arranged with the publishers of the German edition 

 to issue at once an authorized American edition of this great Practice of Medicine. 



For the present a set of 12 volumes, selected with especial thought of the needs of the 

 practising physician, will be published. These volumes will con- 

 tain the real essence of the entire work, and the purchaser will 

 therefore obtain, at less than half the cost, the cream of the orig- 

 inal. Later the special and more strictly scientific volumes will 

 be offered from time to time. 

 The work will be translated by men possessing thorough knowledge of both English and 

 German, and each volume will be edited by a prominent specialist. It will thus be brought 

 thoroughly up to date, and the American edition will be more than a mere translation ; for, 

 in addition to the matter contained in the original, it will represent 

 the very latest views of 'the leading American and English special- 

 ists in the various departments of Internal Medicine. Moreover, 

 as each volume will be revised to the date of its publication by the 

 eminent editor, the objection that has heretofore existed to treatises 

 published in a number of volumes will be obviated, since the subscriber will receive the com- 

 pleted work while the earlier volumes are still fresh. The American publication of the entire 

 work is under the editorial supervision of Dr. ALFRED STENGEL, who has selected the subjects 

 for the American Edition, and has chosen the editors of the different volumes. 



The usual method of publishers when issuing a publication of 

 this kind has been to require physicians to take the entire work. 

 This seems to us in many cases to be undesirable. Therefore, in 

 purchasing this Practice physicians will be given the opportunity 

 of subscribing for it in entirety ; but any single volume or any 

 number of volumes, each complete in itself, may be obtained by those who do not desire the 

 complete series. This latter method offers to the purchaser many advantages which will be 

 appreciated by those who do not care to subscribe for the entire work at one time.
