CARPENTER'S HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY. 



PBINGIPLES OF HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY! 



WITH THEIR CHIEF APPLICATIONS TO 



PATHOLOGY, HYGIENE, AID FOREJVSIC MEDICINE. 



BY WILLIAM B. CARPENTER, M.D., F.R.S.,&c. 



FOURTH AMERICAN EDITION, 



With extensive Additions and Improvements by the Author. 



With Two Lithographic Plates, and M wood-cuts. 



In one large and handsomely printed octavo volume of over seven hundred and fifty pages. 



In preparing- a new edition of this very popular text-hook, the publishers have had it completely revised 

 by the author, who, without materially increasing its hulk, has embodied in it all the recent investigations 

 and discoveries in physiological science,; and has rendered it in every respect on a level with the improvements 

 of the day. Although the numbevof the wood-tngravings has been but little increased, a considerable change 

 will be found, many new and interesting illustrations having been introduced in place of others which were 

 considered of minor importance, or which the advance of science had shown to be imperfect, while the plates- 

 have been altered and redrawn under the supervision of the author by a competent London artist. In passing 

 the volume through the press in this country, the services of a professional gentleman have been secured, in 

 order to insure the accuracy so necessary to a scientific work. Notwithstanding these improvements, the 

 price of the volume is maintained at its former moderate rate. 



From Professor W.R. Grant, of Philadelphia. 



The works of Dr. Carpenter in general, and this in particular, I consider of the highest authority. From the 

 first I have recommended it to our students as one of the best works published on the subject. The present edi- 

 tion, in particular, I consider worthy the attention not only of the medical student, but of the whole profession. 

 From Professor O. W. Holmes, of Boston. 



I shall therefore be able now to recommend it to my class without the reservations which I was obliged to 

 make when speaking of the former editions. It now constitutes an admirable digest of the science of physi- 

 ology, and as such I shall speak of it to the pupils of the public and private medical schools with which I am 

 connected. 



From Professor R S. Holmes, of St. Louis. 



There is no text-book on the science, that I know of, to compare with it. 



From Professor G. L. Collins, of Providence. 



I have for several years used no other as a text-book for students. I shall continue to recommend it as the 

 very best physiological work extant. I know that it has the approbation of all the physicians of this city. 

 From Professor Charles Hooker, of Yah College. 



For years I have used Carpenter's Physiology as a text- book for my classes, considering it decidedly pre- 

 ferable to any other work on the subject. The original researches of Dr. Carpenter render his treatise indis- 

 pensable to the members of the medical profession who wish to acquire a thorough knowledge of the funda- 

 mental principles of the science. The profession should regard themselves as under obligations to you fo? 

 the successive editions of this excellent work. 



From Professor L. A. Dugas, of Augusta. Georgia. 



Dr. Carpenter's invaluable '• Principles of Human Physiology" is a work that I prize very highly, and take 

 great pleasure in recommending as a text- book to the class of the Medical College of Georgia. Its intrinsic 

 merits atone, however, should secure for it a place in the library of every accomplished physician. 



In this volume of Dr. Carpenter's, we need only say we have the well- ascertained facts, doctrines, &e. of 

 the present period fully stated; for the known reputation of the previous editions of the work have been 

 sufficient, alone, to command for it a ready and extensive sale. 



We perceive, also, that there are many new illustrations added to this edition, whieh, to say the leasl, 

 facilitate the learner, and render it admirably adapted to the end designed, a comprehensive and accurate 

 work for the use of both student and practitioner — N. Y. Journal of Medicine. 



CARPENTER'S ELEMENTS. 



ELEMENTS oFpHYSIOLOGY, 

 Including Physiological Anatomy.— For the use of the Medical Student* 



BY WILLIAM B. CARPENTER, M. D., F. R. S., 



Fullerian Professor of Physiology in the Royal Institution of Great Britain, &c. 



With one hundred and eighty Illustrations. 



In one 8vo. vol. of 566 pages, elegantly printed, to match his "Principles of Human Physiology." 



The author has shown singular skill in preserving so marked a line of distinction between the present 

 Manual and the "Principles of Physiology" previously published by him. They are both on precisely the 

 same subject ; but the one is neither a copy, nor an abstract, nor an abridgment of the olher. In one thing, 

 however, they are exactly alike— in their general excellence, and in their perfect adaptation to their respect- 

 ive purposes —British and Foreign Medical Review. 



LONGET'S PHYSIOLOGY- Preparing. 



A TREATISE ON PHYSIOLOGY. 



BY F. A. LONGET, M. D. 



TRANSLATED FROM THK FRENCH, WITH NOTES ANT) ADDITIONS, BY FRANCIS GURNEY SMITH, M. J>., 



■ Lecturer on Physiology in the Philadelphia Association for Medical Instruction, Sec. 



In two large octavo volumes, with numerous illustrations. 



The profession in this country will doubtless welcome th's work of the celebrated teacher, M. Longet. as 



giving them iln: views of one who is universally held as one of the highest authorities in Physiology, while 



ai the «:im<- lirni' it proems a full and complete treatise on this extensive subject, thoroughly brought up t© 



the most advanced slate of science.
