Professor of Institutes of Medicine in the Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia. 



HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY. Eighth edition. Thoroughly revised and exten- 

 sively modified and enlarged, with five hundred and thirty-two illustrations. In two large and 

 handsomely printed octavo volumes, leather, of about 1500 pages. $7 00. 



In revising this work for its eighth appearance, the author has spared no labor to render it worthy 

 a continuance of the very great favor which has been extended to it by the profession. The whole 

 contents have been rearranged, and to a great extent remodelled ; the" investigations which of late 

 years have been so numerous and so important, have been carefully examined and incorporated, 

 and the work in every respect has been brought up to a level with the present state of the subject. 

 The object of the author has been to render it a concise but comprehensive treatise, containing the 

 whole body of physiological science, to which the student and man of science can at all times refer 

 with the certainty of finding whatever they are in search of, fully presented in all its aspects; and 

 on no former edition has the author bestowed more labor to secure this result.

That he has succeeded, most admirably succeeded 

 in his purpose, is apparent from the appearance of

GENERAL THERAPEUTICS AND MATERIA MEDIC A; adapted for a 



Medical Text-book. With Indexes of Remedies and of Diseases and their Remedies. SIXTH 

 EDITION, revised and improved. With one hundred and ninety-three illustrations. In two large 

 and handsomely printed octavo vols., leather, of about 1100 pages. $6 00. 



From the Authors Preface. 



" Another edition of this work being called for, the author has subjected it to a thorough and careful 

 revision. It has been gratifying to him that it has been found so extensively useful by those for whom 

 it was especially intended, as to require that a sixth edition should be issued in so short a time after 

 the publication of a fifth. Grateful for the favorable reception of the work by the profession, he has 

 bestowed on the preparation of the present edition all those cares which were demanded by the 

 former editions, and has spared no pains to render it a faithful epitome of General Therapeutics 

 and Materia Medica. The copious Indexes of Remedies and of Diseases and their Remedies cun- 

 not fail, the author conceives, to add materially to the value of the work." 



This work is too widely and too favorably known to require more than the assurance that the 

 author has revised it with his customary industry, introducing whatever has been found necessary 

 to bring it on a level with the most advanced condition of the subject. The number of illustrations 

 has been somewhat enlarged, and the mechanical execution of the volumes will be found to have 

 undergone a decided improvement. 



In announcing a new edition of Dr. Dunglison's 

 General Therapeutics and Materia Medica, we have 

 no words of commendation to bestow upon a work 

 whose merits have been heretofore so often and so 

 justly extolled. It must not be supposed, however, 

 that the present is a mere reprint of the previous 

 eriition; the character of the author for laborious 

 research, judicious analysis, and clearness of ex- 

 pression, is fully sustained by the numerous addi- 



The work will, we have little doubt, be bought 

 and read by the majority of medical students; its 

 size, arrangement, and reliability recommend it to 

 all ; no one, we venture to predict, will study it 

 without profit, and there are few to whom it will 

 not be in some measure useful as a work of refer- 

 ence. The young practitioner, more especially, will 

 find the copious indexes appended to this edition of 

 great assistance in the selection and pieparation of 

 suitable formulae. Charleston Med. Jouru. and Re- 

 view, Jan. 185S.

NEW REMEDIES, WITH FORMULA FOR THEIR PREPARATION AND 



ADMINISTRATION. Seventh edition, with extensive Additions. In one very large octavo 



volume, leather, of 770 pages. $3 75. 



Another edition of the " New Remedies" having been called for, the author has endeavored to 

 add everything of moment that has appeared since the publication of the last edition. 



The articles treated of in the former editions will be found to have undergone considerable ex- 

 pansion in this, in order that the author might be enabled to introduce, as far as practicable, the 

 results of the subsequent experience of others, as well as of his own observation and reflection ; 

 and to make the work still more deserving of the extended circulation with which the preceding 

 editions have been favored by the profession. By an enlargement of the page, the numerous addi- 

 tions have been incorporated without greatly increasing the bulk of the volume. Preface.
