tude and skill in expounding it, qualif 

 write an educational work, Mr. Marsha 

 might be reviewed favorably without even opening 

 the covers. There are few, if any, more accomplished 

 anatomists and physiologists than the distinguished 

 professor of surgery at University College ; and he 

 has long enjoyed the highest reputation as a teacher 

 of physiology, possessing remarkable powers of clear 

 exposition and graphic illustration. It is only re- 

 markable that Mr. Marshall has allowed so long a 

 time to elapse before producing a text-book after hig 

 own heart. The plan of this book differs in many 

 respects from that of existing educational books ; 

 the science of human physiology being treated in 

 wider and more constant reference to chemistry, 

 physics, and comparative anatomy and physiology. 

 There can be no question, we think, that this is the 

 most satisfactory, philosophic, and fruitful mode of 

 teaching physiology. We have rarely the pleasure 

 of being able to recommend a text-book so unreserv- 

 edly as this. British Med. Journal, Jan. 25, 1863. 



We may now congratulate him on having com- 

 pleted the latest as well as the best summary of mod- 

 ern physiological science, both human and compara- 

 tive, with which -we are acquainted. To speak of 

 this work in the terms ordinarily used on such occa- 

 sions would not be agreeable to ourselves, and would 

 fail to do justice to its author. To write such a book 

 requires a varied and wide range of knowledge, con- 

 siderable power of analysis, correct judgment, skill 

 in arrangement, and conscientious spirit. It must 

 have entailed great labor, but now that the task has 

 been fulfilled, the book will prove not only invaluable 

 to the student of medicine and surgery, but service- 

 able to all candidates in natural science examinations, 

 to teachers in schools, and to the lover of nature gene- 

 rally. In conclusion, we can only express the con- 

 viction that the merits of the work will command for 

 it that success which the ability and vast labor dis- 

 played in its production so well deserve. London 

 Lancet, Feb. 22, 1868.

PRINCIPLES OF HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY; with their chief appli- 



cations to Psychology, Pathology, Therapeutics, Hygiene and Forensic Medicine. A new 

 American from the last and revised London edition. With nearly three hundred illustrations. 

 Edited, with additions, by FRANCIS GURNET SMITH, M. D., Professor of the Institutes of 

 Medicine in the University of Pennsylvania, Ac. In one very large and beautiful octavo 

 volume, of about 900 large pages, handsomely printed; extra cloth, $5 50 ; leather, raised 

 bands, $6 50. 



The highest compliment that can be extended to 

 this great work of Dr. Carpenter is to call attention 

 to this, another new edition, which the favorable 

 regard of the profession has called for. Carpenter is 

 the standard authority on physiology, and no physi- 

 cian or medical student will regard his library as 

 complete without a copy of it. Cincinnati Med. Ob- 

 server. 



With Dr. Smith, we confidently believe "that the 

 present will more than sustain the enviable reputa- 

 tion already attained by former editions, of being 

 one of the fullest and most complete treatises on the 

 subject in the English language." We know of none 

 from the pages of which a satisfactory knowledge of 

 the physiology of the human organism can be as well 

 obtained, none better adapted for the use of such as 

 take up the study of physiology in its reference to 

 the institutes and practice of medicine. Am. Jour. 

 Med. Sciences. 



We doubt not it is destined to retain a strong hold 

 on public favor, and remain the favorite text-book in 

 our colleges. Virginia Medical Journal. 



We have so often spoken in terms of high com- 

 mendation of Dr. Carpenter's elaborate work on hu- 

 man physiology that, in announcing a new edition, 

 it is unnecessary to add anything to what has hereto- 

 fore been said, and especially is this the case since 

 every intelligent physician is as well aware of the 

 character and merits of the work as we ourselves are. 

 St. Louis Med. and Surg. Journal. 



The above is the title of what is emphatically the 

 great work on physiology ; and we are conscious that 

 it would be a useless effort to attempt to add any- 

 thing to the reputation of this invaluable work, and 

 can only say to all with whom our opinion has any 

 influence, that it is our authority. Atlanta Med. 

 Journal.
