One of the greatest artistic triumphs of the age 

 in Surgical Anatomy. British American Medical 

 Journal. 



Too much cannot be said in its praise; indeed, 

 we have not language to do it justice. Ohio Medi- 

 cal and Surgical Journal. 



The most admirable surgical atlas we have seen. 

 To the practitioner deprived of demonstrative dis- 

 sections upon the human subject, it is an invaluable 

 companion. N. J. Medical Reporter. 



The most accurately engraved and beautifully 

 colored plates we have ever seen in an American 

 book one of the best and cheapest surgical works 

 ever published. Buffalo Medical Journal. 



It is very rare that so elegantly printed, so well 

 illustrated, and so useful a work, is offered at so 

 moderate a price. Charleston Medical Journal. 



Its plates can boast a superiority which places 

 them almost beyond the reach of competition. Medi- 

 cal Examiner. 



A work which has no parallel in point of accu- 

 racy and cheapness in the English language. N. Y. 

 Journal of Medicine. 



Country practitioners will find these plates of im- 

 mense value. N. Y. Medical Gazette. 



We are extremely gratified to announce to the 

 profession the completion of this truly magnificent 

 work, which, as a whole, certainly stands unri- 

 valled, both for accuracy of drawing, beauty of 

 coloring, and all the requisite explanations of the 

 subject in hand. Tht New Orleans Medical and 

 Surgical Journal. 



This is by far the ablest work on Surgical Ana- 

 tomy that has come under our observation. We 

 know of no other work that would justify a stu- 

 dent, in any degree, for neglect of actual dissec- 

 tion. In those sudden emergencies that so often 

 arise, and which require the instantaneous command 

 of minute anatomical knowledge, a work of this kind 

 keeps the details of the dissecting-room perpetually 

 fresh in the memory. The Western Journal of Medi- 

 cine and Surgery. 



MILLER (HENRY), M. D., 



Professor of Obstetrics and Diseases of Women and Children in the University of Louisville. 



PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF OBSTETRICS, &c. 5 including the Treat- 



ment of Chronic Inflammation of the Cervix and Body of the Uterus considered as a frequent 

 cause of Abortion. With about one hundred illustrations on wood. In one very handsome oc- 

 tavo volume, of over 600 pages. (Lately Published.) $3 75. 



The reputation of Dr. Miller as an obstetrician is too widely spread to require the attention of 

 the profession to be specially called to a volume containing the experience of his long and extensive 

 practice. The very favorable reception accorded to his " Treatise on Human Parturition," issued 

 some years since, is an earnest that the present work will fulfil the author's intention of providing 

 within a moderate compass a complete and trustworthy text-book for the student, and book of re- 

 ference for the practitioner. 



tion to which its merits justly entitle it. The style 

 is such that the descriptions are clear, and each sub- 

 ject is discussed and elucidated with due regard to 

 its practical bearings, which cannot fail to make it 

 acceptable and valuable to both students and prac- 

 titioners. We cannot, however, close this brief 

 notice without congratulating the author and the 

 profession on the production of such an excellent 

 treatise. The author is a western man of whom we 



We congratulate the author that the task is done. 

 We congratulate him that he has given to the medi- 

 cal public a work which will secure for him a high 

 and permanent position among the standard autho- 

 rities on the principles and practice of obstetrics. 

 Congratulations are not less due to the medical pro- 

 fession of this country, on the acquisition of a trea- 

 tise embodying the results of the studies, reflections, 

 and experience of Prof. Miller. Few men, if any, 

 in this country, are more competent than he to write 

 on this department of medicine. Engaged for thirty- 

 five years in an extended practice of obstetrics, for 

 many years a teacher of this branch of instruction 

 in one of the largest of our institutions, a diligent 

 student as well as a careful observer, an original and 

 independent thinker, wedded to no hobbies, ever 

 ready to consider without prejudice new views, and 

 to adopt innovations if they are really improvements, 

 and withal a clear, agreeable writer, a practical 

 treatise from his pen could not fail to possess great 

 value. Buffalo Med Journal, Mar. 1858. 



In fact, this volume must take its place among the 

 standard systematic treatises on obstetrics ; a posi- 



feel proud, and we cannot but think that his book 

 will find many readers and warm admirers wherever 

 obstetrics is taught and studied as a science and an 

 art. The Cincinnati Lancet and Observer, Feb. 1858. 

 A most respectable and valuable addition to our 

 home medical literature, and one reflecting credit 

 alike on the author and the institution to which he 

 is attached. The student will find in this work a 

 most useful guide to his studies; the country prac- 

 titioner, rusty in his reading, can obtain from its 

 pages a fair resume of the modern literature of the 

 science ; and we hope to see this American produc- 

 tion generally consulted by the profession. Va.

MACKENZIE (W.), M.D., 



Surgeon Oculist in Scotland in ordinary to Her Majesty, &c. &c. 



A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON DISEASES AND INJURIES OF THE 



EYE. To which is prefixed an Anatomical Introduction explanatory of a Horizontal Section of 

 the Human Eyeball, by THOMAS WHARTON JONES, F. R. S. From the Fourth Revised and En- 

 larged London Edition. With Notes and Additions by ADDINELL HEWSON, M. D., Surgeon to 

 Wills Hospital, &c. &c. In one very large and handsome octavo volume, leather, raised bands, with 

 plates and numerous wood-cuts. $5 25. 



The treatise of Dr. Mackenzie indisputably holds 

 the first place, and forms, in respect of learning and 

 research, an Encyclopaedia unequalled in extent by 

 any other work of thekind, either English orforeign. 

 Dixon on Diseases of the Eye. 



Few modern books on any department of medicine 

 or surgery have met with such extended circulation, 

 or have procured for their authors a like amount of 

 European celebrity. The immense research which 

 it displayed, the thorough acquaintance with the 

 subject, practically as well as theoretically, and the 



able manner in which the author's stores of learning 

 and experience were rendered available for general 

 use, at once procured for the first edition, as well on 

 the continent as in this country, that high position 

 as a standard work which each successive edition 

 has more firmly established. We consider it the 

 duty of every one who has the love of his profession 

 and the welfare of his patient at heart, to make him- 

 self familiar with this the most complete work in 

 the English language upon the diseases of the eye.
