It is now generally conceded that the nervous system controls all of the physical 

 functions to a greater or less extent, and also 'that most of the symptoms encountered at 

 the bedside can be explained and interpreted from the stand-point of nervous physiology. 



The unprecedented sale of this work during the short period which has elapsed since 

 its publication has already compelled the publishers to print a second edition, which is 

 already nearly exhausted. 



We are glad to note that Dr. Ranney has pub- 

 lished in c : ok form his admirable lectures on nervous 

 diseases. His book contains over seven hundred 

 large pages, and is profusely illustrated with origi- 

 nal diagrams and sketches in colors, and with many 

 carefully selected wood-cuts and reproduced photo- 

 graphs of typical cases. A large amount of valua- 

 ble information, not a little of which has but recently 



appeared in medical literature, is presented in conv 

 pact form, and thus made easily accessible. In our 

 opinion,, Dr. Ranney's book ought to meet with a 

 cordial reception at the hands of the medical pro- 

 fession, for, even though the author's views may be 

 sometimes open to question, it cannot be disputed 

 that his work bears evidence of scientific method and 

 honest opinion. — American Journal of Insanity.

WW Since the publisher brought this valuable work before the prof ession, it has become: 

 1st, the text-book of a large number of colleges; 2d, the reference-booh of the U. S. Army, 

 Navy, and the Marine Service; and, 3d, an important and valued addition to the libraries 

 of over 7000 physicians. 



This book has not only the inherent merit of presenting a dear expose of the subject, 

 but it is written with a view to enable the general practitioner to treat his cases himself. 

 To facilitate diagnosis, colored plates are introduced, showing the appearance of the differ- 

 ent parts in the diseased state ae they appear in nature by artificial light. No error can 

 thus be made, as each affection of the nose and throat has its representative in the 100 

 rhromo-lithographs presented. In the matter of treatment, the indications are so complete 

 that even the slightest procedures, folding of cotton for the forceps, the use of the probe, 

 etc., are clearly explained. 



It is intended to furnish the general practitioner 

 not only with p guide for the treatment of diseases of 

 the nose and throat, but also to place before him a 

 representation of the normal and diseased parts as 



they would appear to him were they seen in the 

 living subject. As a guide to the treatment of the 

 nose and throat, we can cordially recommend this 

 work:— Boston Medical and Surgical Journal.
