MILLER (JAMES), F. R. S. E., 



Professor of Surgery in the University of Edinburgh, &c. 



PRINCIPLES OF SURGERY. Fourth American, from the third and revised 

 Edinburgh edition. In one large and very beautiful volume, leather, of 700 pages, with two 

 hundred and forty illustrations on wood. $3 75. 



The work of Mr. Miller is too well and too favor- 

 ably known among us, as one of our best text-books, 

 to render any further notice of it necessary than the 

 announcement of a new edition, the fourth in our 

 country, a proof of its extensive circulation among 

 us. As a concise and reliable exposition of the sci- 



ence of modern surgery, it stands deservedly high 

 we know not its superior. Boston Med. and Surg. 

 Journal. 



The work takes rank with Watson's Practice of 

 Physic; it certainly does not fall behind that great 

 work in soundness of principle or depth of reason- 

 ing' and research. No physician who values his re- 

 putation, or seeks the interests of his clients, can 

 acquit himself before his God and the world without 



ofM 



making himself familiar with the sound and philo- 

 sophical views developed in the foregoing book.

THE PRACTICE OF SURGERY. Fourth American from the last Edin- 

 burgh edition. Revised by the American editor. Illustrated by three hundred and sixty- four 

 engravings on wood. In one large octavo volume, leather, of nearly 700 pages. $3 75. 



his works, both on the principles and practice of 

 surgery have been assigned the highest rank. If we 

 were limited to but one work on surgery, that one 

 should be Miller's, as we regard it as superior to all 

 others. St. Louis Med. and Surg. Journal. 



The author has in this and his " Principles," pre- 

 sented to the profession one of the most complete and 

 reliable systems of Surgery extant. His style of 

 writing is original, impressive, and engaging, ener- 

 getic, concise, and lucid. Few have the faculty of 

 condensing so much in small space, and at the same 

 time so persistently holding theattention. Whether 

 as a text-book for students or a book of reference 

 for practitioners, it cannot be too strongly recom- 

 mended. Southern Journal of Med. and Physical 

 Sciences. 



No encomium of ours could add to the popularity 



Miller's Surgery. Its reputation in this country 

 is unsurpassed by that of any other work, and, when 

 taken in connection with the author's Principles of 

 Surgery, constitutes a whole, without reference to 

 to which no conscientious surgeon would be willing 

 practice his art. Southern Med. and Surg. Journal. 



It is seldom that two volumes have ever made so 

 profound an impression in so short a time as the 

 " Principles" and the " Practice" of Surgery by 

 Mr. Miller or so richly merited the reputation they 

 have acquired. The author is an eminently sensi- 

 ble, practical, and well-informed man, who knows 

 exactly what he is talking about and exactly how to 

 talk it. Kentucky Medical Recorder.

MORLAND (W. WJ, M. D. 



Fellow of the Massachusetts Medical Society, &c. 



DISEASES OF THE URINARY ORGANS ; a Compendium of their Diagnosis, 



Pathology, and Treatment. With illustrations. In one large and handsome octavo volume, of 

 about 600 pages, extra cloth. (Just Issued.) $3 50. 



Taken as a whole, we can recommend Dr. Mor- 

 land's compendium as a very desirable addition to 

 the library of every medical or surgical practi- 

 tioner. Brit, and For. Med.-Chir. Rev., April, 1859. 



Every medical practitioner whose attention has 

 been to any extent |attracted towards the class of 

 diseases to which this treatise relates, must have 

 often and sorely experienced the want of some full, 

 yet concise recent compendium to which he could 

 refer. This desideratum has been supplied by Dr. 

 Morland, and it has been ably done. He has placed 

 before us a full, judicious, and reliable digest. 

 Each subject is treated with sufficient minuteness, 



yet in a succinct, narrational style, such as to render 

 the work one of great interest", and one which will 

 prove in the highest degree useful to the general 

 practitioner. To the members of the profession in the 

 country it will be peculiarly valuable, on account 

 of the characteristics which we have mentioned, 

 and the one broad aim of practical utility which is 

 kept in view, and which shines out upon every page, 

 together with the skill which is evinced in the com- 

 bination of this grand requisite with the utmost 

 brevity which a just treatment of the subjects would 

 admit. N. Y. Journ. of Medicine, Nov. 1858. 



MONTGOMERY (W. F.), M. D., M. R. I. A., &c., 



Professor of Midwifery in the King and Queen's College of Physicians hi Ireland, &c. 



AN EXPOSITION OF THE SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF PREGNANCY. 



With some other Papers on Subjects connected with Midwifery. From the second and enlarged 

 English edition. With two exquisite colored plates, and numerous wood-cuts. In one very 

 handsome octavo volume, extra cloth, of nearly 600 pages. (Lately Published.} $3 75.

selves, and so important, every one of them, to the 

 most delicate and precious of social relations, con- 

 trolling often the honor and domestic peace of a 

 family, the legitimacy of offspring, or the life of its 

 parent, are all treated with an elegance of diction, 

 fulness of illustrations, acuteness and justice of rea- 

 soning, unparalleled in obstetrics, and unsurpassed in 

 medicine. The reader's interest can never flag, so 

 fresh, and vigorous, and classical is our author's 

 style; and one forgets, in the renewed charm of 

 every page, that it, and every line, and every word 



has been weighed and reweighed through years of 

 preparation ; that this is of all others the book of 

 Obstetric Law, on each of its several topics ; on all 

 points connected with pregnancy, to be everywhere 



received as a manual of special jurisprudence, at 

 once announcing fact, affording argument, establish- 

 ing precedent, and governing alike the juryman, ad- 

 vocate, and judge. It is not merely in its legal re- 



lations that we find this work so interesting
