TREATISE OF THE NON-MICROBIAN PARASITIC DISEASES OF 
DOMESTIC ANIMALS (TRAIT^ DES MALADIES PARASITAIRES 
NON MICROBIENNES DES ANIMAUX DOMESTIQUES). By Pkof. 
L. G. Neumann, of the Toulouse School. 
Veterinary literature receives a valuable acquisition in this 
excellent work, and its preparation reflects great honor upon the 
author. It meets a want much felt, but now well supplied. It 
cannot fail to benefit all who will read it, both for the informa¬ 
tion embodied in the text, and the valuable documents either 
contained in the volume, or referred to in the bibliographical 
notes which it contains. 
The work treats of domestic animals alone, and the arrange¬ 
ment of the subject is a very simple one. The diseases are 
grouped organ by organ, and occupy eight chapters. 
The parasitic pathology of all the tissues is successively treated, 
under the various headings of parasites of the skin; of the diges¬ 
tive apparatus; of the serous membranes; of the respiratory 
system; of the circulation ; of the muscles, the cellular tissue 
and the bones ; of the nervous centers and organs of the senses; 
and of the genito-urinary apparatus. Some of the chapters are 
subdivided for the clearer treatment of the specialties of animal 
and of vegetable parasitism. 
NEW DICTIONARY OF VETERINARY MEDICINE, SURGERY AND 
HYGIENE (NOUVEAU DICTIONNAIRE DE M&DECINE, CHIR- 
URGIE ET HYGIENE VETERINAIRE). Begun by H. Bouley and 
continued by Messrs. Sanson, Tr abbot and Nooard. 
No one will complain of the new departure adopted by the 
editors and authors of this excellent work. It started in life 
many years ago, the first volume having been issued in 1856, and 
that which we are now noticing being the fifteenth, but following 
its immediate predecessor within six months after that had 
passed through the press—a good example of despatch in business, 
especially as contrasted with former rates of progress in publishing 
enterprises.
