TODD (R. B.), M. D., AND BOWMAN (WILLIAM), F. R. S. 

 PHYSIOLOGICAL ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY OF MAN. With 



numerous handsome wood-cuts. Parts I, II, and III, in one octavo volume, 552 pages. Part IV 



will complete the work. 



The distinguishing peculiarity of this work is, that the authors investigate for themselves every 

 fact asserted ; and it is the immense labor consequent upon the vast number of observations re"- 

 quisite to carry out this plan, which has so long delayed the appearance of its completion. Part 

 IV, with numerous original illustrations, is now appearing in the Medical News and Library for 

 1853. Those who have subscribed since the appearance of the preceding portion of the work can 

 have the three parts by mail, on remittance of $2 50 to the publishers.

 M. D , author of a " Treatise on the Diseases of Children," &c. In one octavo volume, of nearly 

 eleven hundred large pages, strongly bound with raised bands. 



To say that it is the very best work on the sub- 

 ject now extant, is but to echo the sentiment of the 

 medical press throughout the country. N. O.

Of the text-books recently republished Watson is 

 very justly the principal favorite. Holmes's Rep.

By universal consent the work ranks among the 

 very best text-books in our language. Illinois and

Regarded on all hands as one of the very best, if 

 not the very best, systematic treatise on practical 

 medicine extant. St. Louis Med. Journal. 



Confessedly one of the very best works on the 

 principles and practice of physic in the English or 

 any other language. Med. Examiner. 



As a text-book it has no equal; as a compendium

We know of no work better calculated for being 

 placed in the hands of the student, and for a text- 

 book; on every important point the author seems 

 to have posted up his knowledge to the day.

We consider this as the ablest -work in the En-

The examination we have given the above work, 

 convinces us that it is a complete system or treatise 

 upon the great speciality of Physical Diagnosis. To 

 give the reader a more perfect idea of what it con- 



contents and make some extracts from its pages, but 

 our limits forbid. We have no hesitation in recom- 

 mending the work as one of the most complete on 

 this subject in the English language; and yet it is 

 not so voluminous as to be objectionable on this ac- 

 count, to any practitioner, however pressing his 

 engagements. Ohio Medical and Surgical Journal. 



WHAT TO OBSERVE 

 AT THE BEDSIDE AND AFTER DEATH, IN MEDICAL CASES. 



Published under the authority of the London Society for Medical Observation. In one very 



handsome volume, royal 12mo., extra cloth (Just Issued.) 



Did not the perusal of the work justify the high | correct diagnosis, it will prove exceedingly valua- 

 ble. The great difficulty \yith beginners, who have 

 not been under the immediate training of an expe- 

 rienced physician, is continually found to be in the 

 appreciation of the true condition of the organs and 

 tissues. Let such provide themselves with this 

 work and study it thoroughly, and they will find 

 much of the difficulty removed. Southern Medical 

 and Surgical Journal. 



This is truly a very capital book. The whole 

 medical world will reap advantages from its publi- 

 cation. The medical journals will soon show its 

 influence on the character of the ; < Reports of Cases" 

 which they publish. Drs. Ballard and Walshe have 

 given to the world, through a small but useful 

 medical organization, a cheap but invaluable book. 

 We do advise every reader of this notice to buy it 

 and use it. Unless he is so vain as to imagine him- 

 self superior to the ordinary human capacity, he will 

 in six months see its inestimable advantages.

opinion we have of it, the names of Dr. Walshe, the 

 originator, and of Dr. Ballard, as the editor of the 

 volume, would almost of itself have satisfied us that 

 it abounds in minute clinical accuracy. We need 

 not say that the execution of the whole reflects the 

 highest credit not only upon the gentlemen men- 

 tioned, but upon all those engaged upon its produc- 

 tion. In conclusion, we are convinced that the 

 possession of the work will be almost necessary to 

 every member of the profession that it will be 

 found indispensable to the practical physician, the 

 pathologist, the medical jurist, and above all to the 

 medical student. London Medical Times. 



We hail the appearance of this book as the grand 

 desideratum. Charleston Medical Journal. 



This little work, if carefully read by even old 

 practitioners, cannot fail to be productive of much 

 good ; as a guide to the younger members of the pro-

 best mode of investigating cases so as to arrive at
