MATERIA MEDICA AND THERAPEUTICS. By J. V. Shoemaker, 
A.M., M.D. Second Edition, F. A. Davis & Co., Detroit. 
Although “Dun’s Veterinary Medicines” is about the 
only good work in its own domain which veterinarians can 
consult, study or learn from, yet of course the subject of 
Materia Medina and Therapeutics, as pertaining to humane 
medicine, is more extensively treated and covers more ground, 
and a larger number of writers have given it their attention 
and striven to throw new light on its topics. 
“ Materia Medica and Therapeutics,” by Dr. J. V. Shoe¬ 
maker, is among the last attempts in this direction, and in 
the two volumes which he has devoted to the subject he has 
done well, and rendered it full justice. Veterinarians who 
devote a portion of their time and study to the aquisition of a 
knowledge of human therapeutics as well as to those of their 
own specialty, will never miss the time or regret the trouble 
it may cost them. -
