Synopsis of the Essential Features of the Work

3. Written by Europe’s leading authority on the subject. 
4. Written by a man who has practiced the art a lifetime. 
5. Written by a man who, on account of his eminence as

by Prof. Dr. Frohner and Prof. Dr. Bayer (Berlin and 
Vienna), to discuss bovine obstetrics, both practically and 
scientifically. 
6. The only work containing a thorough differential diag¬ 
nosis of ante and post partum diseases.

... A veterinarian, particularly if his location brings him in 
contact with obstetrical practice, who makes any pretence toward 
being scientific and in possession of modern knowledge upon this 
subject, will not be without this excellent work, as it is really a very 
valuable treatise. It contains nearly 400 pages, numerous illustrations, 
and is put together in Jenkins’ best style. — Pro/. Roscoe R. Bell , in the 
American Veterinary Review. 
In translating into English Professor De Bruin’s excellent text¬ 
book on Bovine Obstetrics, Dr. Wyman has laid British and American 
veterinary surgeons and students under a debt of gratitude. The 
work represents the happy medium between the booklets which are 
adapted for cramming purposes by the student, and the ponderous 
tomes which, although useful to the teacher, are not exactly suited 
to the requirements of the everyday practitioner ... If contains 
seventy-seven excellent illustrations . . . Both translator and pu¬ 
blisher have done their work in a way that deserves praise, and we 
can strongly recommend the work to veterinary students and practi¬ 
tioners. — The Journal of Comparative Pathology and Therapeutics. 
This grand volume, written by Europe’s leading authority on the 
subject, who has practiced the art for a lifetime, is the most recent and 
up-to-date obstetxucal work. It discusses bovine obstetrics, both prac¬ 
tically and scientifically, and contains thorough differential diagnoses 
of ante and post mortem diseases. It deals fully with the now no 
longer obscure contagious and infectious diseases of calves, and is the 
only work of the kind in which the practical part is not overshadowed 
by theory.— American Agriculturist , Aug., 1902.
