We recommend Dr. Barlow's Manual in the warm- 

 est manner as a most valuable vade-mecum. We 

 have had frequent occasion to consult it, and have 

 found it clear, concise, practical, and sound. It is 

 eminently a practical work, containing all that is 

 essential, and avoiding useless theoretical discus- 

 sion. The work supplies what has been for some 

 time wanting, a manual of practice based upon mo- 

 dern discoveries in pathology and rational views of 

 treatment of disease. It is especially intended for 

 the use of students and junior practitioners, but it 



physician. The American editor has added to the 

 work three chapters on Cholera Infantum, Yellow 

 Fever, and Cerebro-spinal Meningitis. These addi- 

 tions, the two first of which are indispensable to a 

 work on practice destined for the profession in this 

 country, are executed with great judgment and fi- 

 delity, by Dr. Condie, who has also succeeded hap- 

 pily in imitating the conciseness and clearness of 

 style which are such agreeable characteristics of 

 the original book. Boston Med. and Surg. Journal. 



BARTLETT (ELISHA), M. D. 

 THE HISTORY, DIAGNOSIS, AND TREATMENT OF THE FEVERS 



OF THE UNITED STATES. A new and revised edition. By ALONZO CLARK, M. D., Prof. 



of Pathology and Practical Medicine in the N. Y. College of Physicians and Surgeons, &c. In 



one octavo volume, of six hundred pages, extra cloth. Price $3 00. 



It is the best work on fevers which has emanated 

 from the American press ; and the present editor has 

 carefully availed himself of all information exist- 

 ing upon the subject in the Old and New World, so 

 that the doctrines advanced are brought down to the 



latest date in the progress of this department of 

 Medical Science. London Med. Times and Gazette, 

 May 2, 1857. 



This excellent monograph on febrile disease, has 

 stood deservedly high since its first publication. It 

 will be seen that it has now reached its fourth edi- 

 tion under the supervision of Prof. A. Clark, a gen- 

 tleman who, from the nature of his studies and pur- 

 suits, is well calculated to appreciate and discuss 

 lt 



logy. His annotations add much to the interest of 

 the work, and have brought it well up to the condi- 

 tion of the science as it exists at the present day 

 in regard to this class of diseases. Southern Med. 

 and Surg. Journal, Mar. 1857. 



It is a work of great practical value and interest, 

 containing much that is new relative to the several 

 diseases of which it treats, and, with the additions 

 of the editor, is fully up to the times. The distinct- 

 ive features of the different forms of fever are plainly 



d forcibly portrayed, and the lines of demarcation 

 refully and accurately drawn, and to the Ameri- 

 can practitioner is a more valuable and safe guide 

 than any work on fever extant. Ohio Med. and
