PRINCIPLES OF SURGERY. Third American, from the second and revised 



Edinburgh edition. Revised, with Additions, by F. \V. SARGENT, M. D., author of " Minor Sur- 

 gery." &c. In one large and very beautiful volume, of seven hundred and fifty-two pages, with 

 two hundred and forty exquisite illustrations on wood. (Extensively used as a text-book.) 



The publishers have endeavored to render the present edition of this work, in every point of n>e- 

 clianical execution, worthy of its very high reputation, and they confidently present it to the pro- 

 fession as one of the handsomest volumes as yet issued in this country. 



This edition is far superior, both in the abundance [ guage. This opinion, deliberately formed after a

BY THE SAME AUTHOR. (Now Ready.} 



THE PRACTICE OF SURGERY. Third American from the second Elm- 

 burgh edition. Edited, with Additions, by F. W. SARGENT, M. D , one of the Surgeons to Will's 

 Hospital, &rc. Illustrated by three hundred and nineteen engravings on wood. In one large 

 octavo volume, of over seven hundred pages. 



This new edition will be found greatly improved and enlarged, as well by the addition of much 

 new matter as by the introduction of a large and complete series of handsome illustrations. An 

 equal improvement exists in the mechanical execution of the work, rendering it in every respect 

 a companion volume to the "Principles." 



We had occasion in a former number of this Jour- 

 nal, to speak in deservedly high terms of Professor 

 Miller's work on the " Principles of Surgery," and 

 we are happy to be able to pronounce an equally 

 favorable judgment on the manner in which the pre- 

 sent volume is executed. *= * * We feel no 

 hesitation in recommending Professor Miller's two 

 volumes as affording to the student what the author 

 intended, namely, a complete text-book of Surgery. 

 British and Foreign Medical Review. 



Although, as we are modestly informed in the 

 preface, it is not put forth in rivalry of the excel- 



lent works on Practical Surgery which already 

 exist, we think we may take upon ourselves to say 

 that it will form a very successful and formidable 

 rival to most of them. Northern Journ. of Medicine. 



Taken together they form a very condensed and 

 complete system of Surgery, not surpassed, as a 

 text-book, 'by any work with which we are ac- 

 quainted. III. and Ind. Med. and Surg. Journal.

 PRACTICAL PHARMACY. Comprising the Arrangements, Apparatus, and 



Manipulations of the Pharmaceutical Shop and Laboratory. Edited, with extensive Additions, 

 by Prof. WILLIAM PROCTER, of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy. In one handsomely 

 printed octavo volume, of 570 pages, with over 500 engravings on wood. 



It is a book, however, which will be in the hands 

 of almost everyone who is much interested in phar- 

 maceutical operations, as we know of no other pub- 

 lication so well calculated to fill a void long felt. 

 Medical Examiner. 



The book is strictly practical, and describes only 

 manipulations or methods of performing the nume- 

 rous processes the pharmaceutist has to go through, 

 in the preparation and manufacture of medicines, 

 together with all the apparatus and fixtures neces- 



sary thereto. On these matters, this work is very 

 full and complete, and details, in a style uncom- 

 monly clear and lucid, not only the more compli- 

 cated and difficult processes, but those not liss im- 

 portant ones, the most simple and common. Buffalo
