" This little volume well deserves the attention 

 of physicians, to whom we commend it most high- 

 ly." Chicago Medical Journal.

 Times. 



" The author gives a succinct account of the dis- 

 To any one suffering from the affection, either eased conditions in which a fetid breath is an im- 



in his own person or in that of his intimate ac- 

 quaintances, we can commend this volume as con- 

 taining all that is known concerning the subject, set

ON THE BILE, JAUNDICE, AND BILIOUS DIS- 

 EASES. By J. WICKHAM LEGG, M. D., F. R. C. S., Assistant Physician to 

 St. Bartholomew's Hospital, and Lecturer on Pathological Anatomy in the 

 Medical School. 



In one volume, 8vo, 719 pp. With Illustrations in Chromo-lithography. Cloth, $6 ; sheep, $7. 



"... And let us turn which we gladly do to 

 the mine of wealth which the volume itself contains, 

 for it is the outcome of a vast deal of labor ; so 

 great indeed, that one unfamiliar with it would be 

 surprised at the number of facts and references 

 which the book contains." Medical Times and Ga- 

 zette, London. 



" The book is an exceedingly good one, and, in 

 some points, we doubt if it could be made better. 

 . . . And we venture to say, after an attentive 

 perusal of the whole, that any one who takes it 

 in hand will derive from it both information and 

 pleasure ; it gives such ample evidence of honest 

 hard work, of wide reading, and an impartial at- 

 tempt to state the case of jaundice, as it is known 

 by observation up to the present date. The book 

 will not only live, but be in the enjoyment of a vig- 

 orous existence long after some of the more popular 

 productions of the present age are buried, past all 

 hope of resurrection." London Medical Record. 



" This portly tome contains the fullest account 

 of the subjects of which it treats in the English lan- 

 guage. The historical, scientific, and practical de- 

 tails are all equally well worked out, and together 

 constitute a repertorium of knowledge which no 

 practitioner can well do without. The illustrative 

 chromo-lithographs are beyond all praise." Edin- 

 burgh Medical Journal. 



' ' Dr. Legg's treatise is a really great book, ex- 

 hibiting immense industry and research, and full of 

 valuable information. " American Journal of Med- 

 ical Science. 



" It seems to us an exhaustive epitome of all 

 that is known on the subject." Philadelphia Medi- 

 cal Times. 



"This volume is one which will command pro- 

 fessional respect and attention. It is, perhaps, the 

 most comprehensive and exhaustive treatise upon 

 the subject treated ever published in the English 

 language." Maryland Medical Journal. 



" It is the work of one who has thoroughly stud- 

 ied the subject, and who, when he finds- the evi- 

 dence conflicting on disputed points, has attempted 

 to solve the problem by experiments and observa- 

 tions of his own." Practitioner, London. 



"It is a valuable work of reference and a wel- 

 come addition to medical literature. Dublin Jour- 

 nal of Medical Science. 



"... The reader is at once struck with the im- 

 mense amount of research exhibited, the author 

 having left unimproved no accessible source of in- 

 formation connected with his subject. It is, indeed, 

 a valuable book, and the best storehouse of knowl- 

 edge in its department that we know of." Pacific 

 Medical and Surgical Journal.
