“Tt is a complete and reliable text-book, up to 
the times, and written by one who has definite ideas 
of what a text-book should and should not contain. 
Besides, we are proud of it as an American pro- 
duction, and hope to see it still more extensively 
used in American colleges.’"—Cleveland Medical 
Gazette, ; 
‘¢This is the fourth edition of one of the most 
popular American text-books. A comparison with 
tormer editions shows that while the general ar-~ 
rangement of subjects has been retained, but little 
remains of the original text; it has, indeed, been 
“To thése familiar with 
the merits of Prof. Flint’s 
physiology, it is only neces- 
sary to say that the present 
volume retains all the ex- 
cellences of its predecessors, 
and will be found a reliable 
and useful work of reference 
for the practitioner who de- 
sires to inform himself as to 
the present state of physio- 
logical stience. To the medi- 
val student this work will 
commend itself on account 
of its clearness, conciseness, 
and intelligible presentation 
of the fundamental and 
generally bag ie facts of 
physiology. The author has 
selected, with judicious care 
and excellent judgment 
those physiological facts and 
theories which, when once 
comprehended, will materi- 
ally assist the student in the 
elucidation of clinical and 
pathological problems, and 
will thus serve to reveal the 
close relationship and inter- 
ne of physiology 
and general medicine.’?—

“The great charm of 
“Flint’s work on physiology 
is that it is made interesting 
tothe reader. This does not 
by any means imply that it 
is a popular work, or one 
addressed to the unprofes- 
sional mind, for it is as thor- 
oughly scientific and goes as 
y into all technical de- 
tails as it could if’ written in 
the dryest and most prosaic 
style. But the author has a knack of weaving to- 
gether his facts into so connected a form that many 
rie oe ot the book are absorbing in their interest. 
any works on physiology, notably those of' the 
. Germans, consist of a mere record of the results of 
entirely rewritten in order to keep pace with the 
rapid advances in physiological research. The 
author has adopted the new chemical nomenclature, 
and he has very wisely retained the English 
weights and measures anc the Fahrenheit scale of 
the thermometer, placing their metric equivalents 
in parentheses, 
“Tf one thing more than another has contributed 
to make this te text-book ot human physiology, 
it is that established facts have been allowed to take 
precedence over peculiar views and pet theories, 
whether of the author or of others.””"—Practice. ,

operations and experiments, the facts grouped ac- 
cording to the part or organ described, but their 
relation to one another and the outcome of the 
whole often left forthe student to figure out for 
himself.””—Northwestern Lancet.

The chief aim of this little work is to enable the busy practitioner to make for himself, rapidly and 
easily, all ordinary examinations of Urine; to give him the benefit of the author’s experience in elimi- 
nating little difficulties in the manipulations, and in reducing processes of analysis to the utmost 
: simplicity that is consistent with accuracy.
