“The profession is to be congratulated on pos- 
sessing so valuable an addition to its literature, and 
the author to be unstintedly praised for his success- 
ful issue to an arduous undertaking. ‘The work 
bears, in a word, every evidence ot having been 
written leisurely and with care... .”’—Jental 
Cosmos. : 
“T consider it to be the most valuable work 
that has ever appeared in this country in any de- 
artment of the science of dental surzery. There 
is no doubt of its great value to every man who 
wishes to study and practice this branch of surgery, 
and I hope it may be adopted as a text-book in 
every dentul college, that the students may have 
the benefit of the great experience of the author. 
It places many things between the covers of one 
book which heretofore I have been obliged to look 
for in many directions, and often without success.” 
—Franx Assot, M.D., Dean of the New York 
College of Dentistry. 
“The writer does not hesitate to express his 
belief that the chapters on the ‘ esthetics of den- 
tistry’ will be found of more practical value to the 
prosthetic dentist than all the other essays on this 
subject existent in the English tthe ee A 
perusal of its pages seems to compel the mind to 
advance in directions variously indicated ; so vari- 
ously, indeed, that there is hardly a page of the 
book which does not contain some important truth, 
some pregnant hint, or some valuable conclusion.” 
—Dental Miscellany.

“‘T congratulate you on having written a book 
containing so much valuable and original matter, 
It will prove of value not only to dentists, but also

“To the at ba and general practitioner of 
medicine, as well as the dentist, its instruction will 
be found invaluable. It is clear in style, practical 
in its pyplivition, comprehensive in its illustra- 
tions, and so exhaustive that it is not likely to meet 
in these Pig a rival.’—Wituiam H. Dwinetze,

“, |. And let us tum—which we gladly do— 
to the mine of wealth which the volume itself con- 
tains, 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 tacts and references 
which the book contains.”—Medical Times and 
Gazette, London. 
“The book is an exceedingly good one, and, in 
some points, we doubt if it could be mado better. 
re nd we venture to say, after an attentive 
erusal of the whole, that any one who takes it in 
bard will derive from it both information and 
leasure; it gives such ample evidence of honest 
ard 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 
vigorous existence long after some of the more pop- 
ular 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 
language. The historical, scicntific, and practical 
details are all equally well worked out, and to- 
gether constitute a repertorium of knowledge 
which no practitioner can well do without. The 
illustrative chromo- lithographs are beyond all 
. praise.” —ZLdinburgh Medical Journal.

“Dr. Legg’s treatise is a really great book, ex- 
hibiting immense industry and research, and full 
of valuable intormation.”—American Journal of 
Medical Science. 
“Tt seems to us an exhaustive epitome of all 
that is’ known on the subject.’? — Philadelphia 
Medical 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 eS ea in the English 
language.”’—Maryland Medical Journal. 
“Tt is the work of one who has thoroughly 
studied the subject, and who, when he finds the 
evidence conflicting on disputed points, has at- 
tempted to solve the problem by experiments and 
observations of his own.” — Practitioner, London. 
“Tt is a valuable work of reference and a 
welcome addition to medical literature.”—Dublin 
Journal of Medical Science. 
“. .. The reader is at once struck with the 
immense amount of research exhibited, the author 
having left unimproved no accessible source of in- 
formation connected with his subject. It is, in- 
deed, a valuable book, and the best storehouse of 
knowledge in its department that we know of.””— 
Pacific Medical and Surgical Journal.
