DISEASES OF THE OVARIES: Their Diagnosis and 

 Treatment. By T. SPENCER WELLS, Fellow and Member of Council of 

 the Royal College of Surgeons of England, etc., etc. 



I vol., 8vo, 478 pp. Illustrated. Cloth, $4.50. 



In 1865 the author issued a volume containing reports of one hundred and fourteen cases of 

 Ovariotomy, which was little more than a simple record cf facts. The book was soon out of print, 

 and, though repeatedly asked for a new edition, the author was unable to do more than prepare 

 papers for the Royal Medical and Chirurgical Society, as series after series of a hundred cases ac- 

 cumulated. On the completion of five hundred cases, he embodied the results in the present vol- 

 ume, an entirely new work, for the student and practitioner, and trusts it may prove acceptable to 

 them and useful to suffering women.
