“Few persons are better qualified -than Dr. 
Cortield to write intelligently upon the subject of 
health, and it is not a matter tor surprise, there- 
fore, that he has given us a volume remarkable for 
accuracy and interest. Commencing with general 
anatomy, the bones and muscles are given atten- 
tion; next, the circulation of the blood, then res- 
piration, nutrition, the liver, and the excretory 
organs, the nervous system, organs of the senses, 
the health of the individual, air, foods and drinks, 
drinking-water, climate, houses and towns, small- 
pox, and communicable discases,’’—Philadelphia

“Dr, Corning’s neat little volume has the merit 
of being highly suggestive, and, besides, it is better 
planted to popular reading than any other profes- 
sional work on the subject that we know of.””—Pa- 
cifie Medical and Surgical Journal. 
“This is a capital little work on the subject 
upon which it treats, and the author has presented, 
from as real a scientific stand-point as Pare a 
group of symptoms the importance o : 
sufficiently Death To fully comp hend the ideas 
as presented by the author, the whole book should 
be read; and, as it consists of only 234 pages, the 
task would not be a severe or tedious one, and the 
information or knowledge obtained would be much 
more than equivalent for the time spent and cost of 
book included. Literary men and women would 
do well to procure it.”— Therapeutic Gazette.

“This book belongs to aclass that is more and 
more demanded by the cultured intelligence of 
the period in which we live. Dr. Cormng may 
he ranked with Hammond, Beard, Mitchell, and 
Crothers, of this country, and with Helo 
stie, Thompson, and more recent authors of Great 
Britain, in discussing the problems of mental dis- 
turbance, in a style that makes it not only profitable 
but attractive reading for the student of psychology. 
The author has divided the work into short chap- 
ters, under general headings, which are again 
subdivided into topics, that are paragraphed in a 
concise and definite form, which at once strikes the 
careful reader as characteristic of a method that is 
terse, concise, and readily apprehended. ‘I here 
are twenty-eight of these pithy chapters, which no 
student of mental diseases can fail to read without 
loss.°— American Psychological Journal. 
which is - 
“, . . In this work on the exhaustion of the 
brain the author presents, in a very clear and in- 
telligent form, the various causes and symptoms of 
the complaint, and points out the principles upon 
which its treatment should be pursued. . . . Tho 
subject of the book is indeed worthy of careful 
consideration, and it is presented by the author in 
such a ates and attractive style that the reader 
will find himself entertained as well as instructed.” 
Medical Record. 
“. . . The study of what is now becoming a 
most interesting subject to the general practitioner. 
as well as to the neurologist, viz.: intellectual 
iseases, has created a demand for works of the 
ind before us, and that Dr. Corning’s memoir 
will meet with the reception that its merits de. 
serve, we have not a doubt.”—Wew Orleans Medi. 
cal and Surgical Journal. 
“¢. . . The quantity of advice is abundant, and 
every separate chapter is instructive. A student 
having the intention to become a practitioner will 
find a rich store of material, and the general 
reader will discover much to interest him, even in- 
cluding certain passages concerning education.’’— 
Philadelphia Evening Bulletin. 
“Dr. Corning has given to the public and to 
the medical profession a work which reports very 
ereditably the results of a somewhat extended 
study of his subject.”—Frouddence Evening Herald. 
‘. . . In some respects Dr. Corning’s book is 
entirely original; in others it is a clear arrange- 
ment and condensation of facts previously known. 
1t distinctly supplies a want because it is the first 
book on the subject adapted to popular reading.”
