THE BRAIN AS AN ORGAN OF MIND. By H. 



CHARLTON BASTIAN, M. A., M. D., Fellow of the Royal College of Phy- 

 sicians ; Professor of Pathological Anatomy in University College, London. 

 With 184 Illustrations and an Index. I vol., I2mo, 708 pp. Cloth, $2.50. 



" This work is the best book of its kind. It is 

 full, and at the same time concise ; comprehensive, 

 but confined to a readable limit ; and, though it 

 deals with many subtile subjects, it expounds them 

 in a style which is admirable for its clearness and 

 simplicity. " Nature. 



" The fullest scientific exposition yet published 

 of the views held on the subject of psychology by 

 the advanced physiological school. It teems with 

 new and suggestive ideas." London Athen&um. 



" Dr. Bastian's new book is one of great value 

 and importance. The knowledge it gives is univer- 

 sal in its claims, and of moment to everybody. It 

 should be forthwith introduced as a manual into all 

 colleges, high schools, and normal schools in the 

 country ; not to be made a matter of ordinary me- 

 chanical recitations, but that its subject may arrest 

 attention and rouse interest, and be lodged in the 

 minds of students in connection with observations 

 and experiments that will give reality to the knowl- 

 edge required." Popular Science Monthly. 



TREATISE ON MATERIA MEDICA AND THERA- 



PEUTICS. Revised and enlarged. Edition of 1883, with Complete Index 

 and Table of Contents. By ROBERTS BARTHOLOW, M. A., M. D., LL.D., 

 Professor of Materia Medica and Therapeutics in the Jefferson Medical Col- 

 lege ; formerly Professor of the Theory and Practice of Medicine, and of 

 Clinical Medicine, and Professor of Materia Medica and Therapeutics in 

 the Medical College of Ohio, etc. 



Sixth edition, revised and enlarged, i vol., 8vo. Cloth, $5.00^ sheep, $6.00. 



" This edition of my treatise contains much new matter. The domain of Pharmacology is 

 rapidly enlarging by the contributions of chemistry, and by new remedies brought forward by 

 dealers with a view to profit. When a new remedy is announced, its physiological actions are 

 immediately studied and defined. ... As in previous issues of this work, I have sought to give 

 the facts, and to some extent current opinions of the time, on the new remedies ; but as far as 

 possible demonstrable incongruities of opinion and of practice have been omitted. Only by 

 actual inspection in all parts of the work, as it now appears, can the numerous additions to the 

 individual remedies be seen. ... I now place the sixth edition before my readers and the 

 medical profession in general, with the expression of my hope that it will deserve and maintain 

 the place in their -esteem which it has always held." From Preface to Sixth Edition. 



"The very best evidence of the success of a 

 work is the continuous and increasing demand for 

 it. Bartholow's ' Materia Medica and Therapeu- 

 tics ' has followed this course since the appearance 

 of the first edition, in June, 1876, and has com- 

 pelled the publishers to again place before the pro- 

 fession the sixth edition. In this issue of the work 

 the author has revised the former edition most 

 carefully, and has included in its pages the latest 

 and the most valuable remedies. About one hun- 

 dred pages have thus been added to this valuable 

 work, the new contributions having, as the author 

 states, been assigned to places according to their 

 physiological relations. The many additions, just 

 referred to, can only be observed by a careful ex- 

 amination of all parts of the book. . . . The 

 work is not only, as in former editions, well 

 arranged, but is the most progressive one of all 

 those now before the profession, in the thorough 

 consideration of all therapeutic measures of value 

 in the treatment of disease." Medical Register. 



"Since 1876 this work has passed through six 

 editions, a degree of favor which is seldom ac- 

 corded to medical works. . . . We have written in 

 former issues of the Journal our appreciation of 

 this volume, and we take this occasion to say that 

 we consider it essential to every well-selected 

 library." North Carolina Medical Journal. 



" It is to be naturally assumed that the appear- 

 ance of six editions of this work in a period of a 

 little more than eleven years, is an indication of 

 the measure of appreciation in which it is held by 

 the profession. . . . The author's additions have 

 been extensive and important, and give increased 

 value to a work that is already recognized as oc- 

 cupying a very conspicuous place in the medical 

 literature of the day." College and Clinical 

 Record. 



" Since Bartholow's ' Materia Medica ' appeared 

 eleven years ago, its several editions have occupied 

 a place of which its author may well feel proud. 

 In the present edition we find much new matter, 

 which, taken as a whole, adds nearly one hundred 

 pages. The ' Clinical Index,' which contributes 

 greatly to the value of the book, has been retained. 

 But few books become so popular as Bartholow's 

 ' Materia Medica.' " Practice. 



' ' Bartholow's ' Materia Medica ' is a book too 

 well known to the practitioners of medicine to 

 need at this day any review. . . . Unquestionably 

 the new edition is a great improvement on the old 

 one ; and even if nothing were added but a sum- 

 mary statement about new remedies in use since 

 the last edition, the work would be desirable." 

 Gaillard's Medical Journal.
