From the Preface to the Sixth English Edition. 



The present edition has been carefully revised, in many parts rewritten, and our attention has 

 been specially directed to the practical application and improvements of treatment. And, in 

 conclusion, we venture to remark that if an acute and friendly critic should discover any differ- 

 ence between our present opinions and those announced in former editions, we have only to ob- 

 serve that science and knowledge are progressive, and that we have done our best to move onward 

 with the times. 



The industry and care with which the author has revised the present* edition are shown by the 

 fact that the volume has been enlarged by more than a hundred pages. In its present improved 

 form it will therefore doubtless retain the position which it has acquired as a standard and classical 

 authority, while at the same time it has additional claims on the attention of the profession as 

 the latest and most complete work on the subject in the English language. 



Such a work as the one before us is a most capital 

 and acceptable help. Mr. Wilson has long been held 

 as high authority in this department of medicine, and 

 his book on diseases of the skin has long been re- 

 garded as one of the best text-books extant on the 

 subject. The present edition is carefully prepared, 

 and brought up in its revision to the present time. In 

 this edition we have also included the beautiful series 



of plates illustrative of the text, and in the last edi- 

 tion published separately. There are twenty of these 

 plates, nearly all of them colored to nature, and ex- 

 hibiting with great fidelity the various groups of 

 diseases treated of in the body of the work. Cin- 

 cinnati Lancet, June, 1863.

We can safely recommend it to the profession as 

 the best work on the subject now in existence in 

 the English langmage. Medical Times and Gazette. 



Mr. Wilson's volume is an excellent digest of the 

 actual amount of knowledge of cutaneous diseases ; 

 it includes almost every fact or opinion of importance 

 connected with the anatomy and pathology of the 

 skin. British and Foreign 'Medical Review. 



These plates are very accurate, and are executed 

 with an elegance and taste which are highly creditable 

 to the artistic skill of the American artist who executed 

 them. St. Louis Med. Journal. 



The drawings are very perfect, and the finish and 

 coloring artistic and correct; the volume is an indis- 

 pensable companion to the book it illustrates and 

 completes. Charleston Medical Journal.

Of the remainder of the work we have nothing be- 

 rond unqualified commendation to offer. It is so far 

 he most complete one of its size that has appeared, 

 and for the student there can be none which can com- 

 pare with it in practical value. All the late disco-

 Since the death of its distinguished author, the study 

 of skin diseases has been considerably advanced, and 

 the results of these investigations have heen added 

 by the present editor to the original work of Dr. Neli- 



veries in Dermatology have been duly noticed, and gan. This, however, has not so" far increased its bulk

 fully up to the times, and is thoroughly stocked with manual of diseases of the skin that can be procured

ATLAS OF CUTANEOUS DISEASES. In one beautiful quarto 



volume, with exquisitely colored plates, &c., presenting jabout one hundred varieties of 

 disease. Extra cloth, $5 50. 



The diagnosis of eruptive disease, however, under | inclined to consider it a very superior work, com- 

 bining accurate verbal description with sound views 

 of the pathology and treatment of eruptive diseases. 

 Glasgow Med. Journal. 



A compend which will very much aid the practi- 

 tioner in this difficult branch of diagnosis. Taken 

 with (he beautiful plates of the Atlas, which are re- 



all circumstances; is very difficult. Nevertheless, 

 Dr. Neligan has certainly, "as far as possible," given 

 a faithful and accurate representation of this class of 

 diseases, and there can be no doubt that these plates 

 will be of great use to the student and practitioner in 

 drawing a diagnosis as to the class, order, and species 

 to which the particular case may belong. While 

 looking over the "Atlas" we have been induced to 

 examine also the "Practical Treatise," and we are 



maskable for their accuracy and beauty of coloring, 

 it constitutes a very valuable addition to the library 

 of a practical man. Buffalo Med. Journal.
