JONES (T. WHARTON), F. R. S., &c. , 



THE PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF OPHTHALMIC MEDICINE 



AND SURGERY. Edited by ISAAC HAYS, M. D., &c. In one very neat volume, large royal 

 12mo., of 5'29 pages, with four plates, plain or eolored, and ninety-eight wood-cuts. 



We are confident that the reader will find, on 

 perusal, that the execution of the work amply fulfils 

 the promise of the preface, and sustains, in every 

 point the already high reputation of the author as 

 an ophthalmic surgeon as \yell as a physiologist 

 and pathologist. The hook is evidently the result 

 of much labor and research, and has heen written 

 with the greatest care and attention; it possesses 

 that hest quality which a general work, like a sys- 

 tem or manual can show, viz. : the quality of having 

 all the materials whennesoever derived, so thorough- 

 ly wrought up, and digested in the author's mind, 

 as to come forth with the freshness and impressive- 

 ness of an original production. We regret that we 

 have received the book at so late a period as pre- 

 cludes our giving more than a mere notice of it, as, 



although essentially and necessarily a compilation, it 

 contains many things which we should be glad fco 

 reproduce in our pages whether in the shape of new 

 pathological views, of old errors corrected, or of 

 sound principles of practice in doubtful cases clearly 

 laid down. But we dare say most of our readers 

 will shortly have an opportunity of seeing these in 

 their original locality, as we entertain little doubt 

 that this book will become what its author hoped it 

 might become, a manual for daily reference and 

 consultation by the student and the general practi- 

 tioner. The work is marked by that correctness, 

 clearness, and precision of style which distinguish 

 all the productions of the learned author. British, 

 and Foreign Medical Review.

handsome royal 12mo. volume. 



In the present edition, the Manual of Physiology 

 has been brought up to the actual condition of the 

 science, and fully sustains the reputation which it 

 has already so deservedly attained. We consider 

 the work of MM. Kirkes and Paget to constitute one 

 of the very best handbooks of Physiology we possess 

 presenting just such an outline of the science, com- 

 prising an account of its leading facts and generally 

 admitted principles, as the student requires during 

 his attendance upon a course of lectures, or for re- 

 ference whilst preparing for examination. The text 

 is fully and ably illustrated by a series of very supe- 

 rior wood-engravings, by which a comprehension of 

 some of the more intricate of the subjects treated of 

 is greatly facilitated. Am. Medical Journal. 



We need only say, that, without entering into dis- 

 cussions of unsettled questions, it contains all the 

 recent improvements in this department of medical 

 science. _ For the student beginning this study, and 

 the practitioner who has but leisure to refresh his 

 memory, this book is invaluable, as it contains all 

 that it is important to know, without special details, 

 which are read with interest only by those who 

 would make a specialty, or desire to possess a criti- 

 cal knowledge of the subject. Charleston Medical 

 Journal. 



One of the best treatises that can be put into the 

 naiuis of the student. London Medical Gazette. 



The general favor with which the first edition of 

 this work was received, and its adoption as a favor- 

 ite text-book by many of our colleges, will insure a 

 large circulation to this improved edition. It will 

 fully meet the wants of the student. Southern 

 Med. and Surg. Journal. 



It possesses the especial merit of being clear and 

 concise, and at the same time affording a good out- 

 line of Physiology. Western Lancet. 



Numerous new and superior illustrations have 

 been introduced for the purpose of making the sub- 

 ject of more easy comprehension by the student. 

 This edition has evidently been prepared with great 

 care, and is handsomely printed on good paper, and 

 will prove a very valuable book for the student in 

 acquainting himself with all the leading well-es- 

 tablished facts in physiology, and f>r the practitioner 

 as a work of reference. New York Medical Times. 



Particularly adapted to those who desire to pos- 

 sess a concise digest of the facts of Human Physi- 

 ology. 23 rit is h and Foreign Med.-Chirurg. Review.
