Lecturer on Practical Pharmacy and Materia Medica in the Pennsylvania Academy of Medicine, Sec. 



AN INTRODUCTION TO PRACTICAL PHARMACY. Designed as a Text- 



Bookior the Student, and as a Guide for the Physician and Pharmaceutist. With many For- 

 mulae and Prescriptions. Second edition, greatly enlarged and improved. In one handsome 

 octavo volume of 720 pageis, w^ith several hundred lUu&trationSj extra cloth. $3 50. {Just 

 Issued.) 



During the short time in which this v(rorlc has been be/ore the profession, it has been received 

 with very great favor, and m as>uming the posiiion of a standard authority, it has filled a vacancy 

 which had Ijteu :>everely ielt. Stimulated by this encouragement, the author, in availing himsetl 

 niihe opportunity of revision, has t^pared no pains to render it more worthy of the confidence be- 

 hiowed upon it, and his ass]dut>us labors have made it raiher a newbookihan a newedition, many 

 portions having been rewritten, and much new and important matter added. These alterations and 

 unprovenients have been rendered necessary by the rapid progress madeby pharmaf^eulical science 

 during the last few years, and by the additional experience obtained in ihe practical use of the 

 volume us a text-book and work of reference. To accommodate these improvements, the size of 

 the page has been materially enlarged, and the number of pages considerably increased, presenting 

 in all ntarly one-half ■more matter than the last edition. The work is therefore now presented as a 

 complete exponent of the subject in its most advanced condition. From the most ordinary matter^^ 

 m the dif-pensing office, to the most complicated details of the vegetable alkaloids, it is hoped that 

 everything requi^lte to the practicing phyhician, and to the apothecary, will be found fully and 

 clearly ^et forth, and that the new matter alone will be worth more than the very moderate cost of 

 the work to those who have been consulting the previous edition. 



That Edward Parrish, in writing a book upon 

 ■practical Pharmacy some few years ago — one emi- 

 nently original und unique — did the medical and 

 pharniMceutical profeBsunisa greatand valuable ser- 

 vice, no one, w^e think, wtio has had access to its 

 pag;es will deny ; doubly \veleome, then, is this new 

 edition, containing tlie added results of his recent 

 and rich experience as an observer, teacher, and 

 practiei.1 operator in thepharmaceutical laboratory. 

 The excellent plan of the first is more thoroughly, 

 and in detail , carried ou t in this edition . — 'Benin&ular 

 Med. Journal^ Jan. 18C0. 



Of course, all apothccariea who have not already 

 a copy of the first edition will procure one of this; 

 it is, therefore, to physicians residing in the country 

 and in small towns, who cannot avail themselves of 

 the skill of an educated pharmaceutist, that we 

 would especially commend this work. In it they 



w^ill find all that they desire to know, and should 

 know, but very little of Avhich they do really itnuw 

 in reference to this important collateral branch of 

 their profession; for it is a well established fact, 

 Ihat, in the eoufation of physicians, while Ihe sci- 

 ence of medicine is generally well taught, very 

 little attention is paid to the art of preparing them 

 for use, and w^e know not how this defect can be so 

 well remedied as by procuring and consulting Dr. 

 Pairish's excellent work. — St. Louis Med. Journal. 

 Jan. 1860. 



We know of no work on the subject w^hieh would 

 be more indispensable to the physician nr studpnt 

 desiring infurmation on the subjeccof which it treats. 

 With Griffith's " Medicil Formulary" and this, the 

 practising physician would be supplied with nearly 

 or quite all the most useful infor ■nation on the sub- 

 ject, — Charleston Med, Jour, and Review^ Jan. 1860 



PEASLEE (E. R.), M. D., 



ProfesBoi- of Physiology and General Pathology in the New York Medical College. 



HUMAN HISTOLOaY, in its relations to Anatomy, Physiology, and Pathology; 



for the use of Medical Students. With four hundred and thirty- four illustrations. In one hand- 

 some octavo volume, of over 600 pages. {Lately Published.) S3 75. 

 It embraces a library upon the topics discussed 



within itself, and is just what the teacher and learner 



need. Another advantage, by no means to be over^ 



looked, everything of real value in the w^ide range 

 w^hich it embraces, is with great skill compressed 

 into an octavo volume of hut little more than six 

 hundred pages. We have not only the whole sub- 

 ject of Histology, interesting in itself, ably and fully 

 discussed, but what is ol infinitely greater interest 

 to the student, because of greater practical value, 

 are its relations to Anatomy, Physiology, and Pa- 

 thology, which are here fully and satisfactorily set 

 (oiiii.— Nashville Jour n. of Mtd. andSurgery. 



We would recommend it to the medical student 

 and practitioner J as containing a summary of all that 

 is known of tne important subjects which it treats ; 

 of all that is contained in the great works of Simon 

 and Lehmann, and the organic chemists in general. 

 Master thiis one volume, we would say to the medical 

 student and practitioner — master this book and you 

 know all that is known of the great fundamental 

 principles of medicine, and we have to hesitation 

 in saying that it is aa honor to the American medi- 

 cal profession that one of its members should have 

 produced it. — St. Louis Bled, and Surg. Journal.
