AUTHORIZED EDITION, 
This work conveys “practical knowledge at a glance ” by means of 
tables which, although occupying but little space, allow at a glance the 
observation of similarities and differences between poisons belonging to the 
same group. A copy of “ The Rules for the Spelling and Pronunciation of 
Chemical Terms,” as adopted by the American Association for the Advance¬ 
ment of Science, has been embodied in this work. Also, of the greatest 
importance, it has a very complete alphabetical index.

SOJTE ADVANCE NOTICES. 
Dr. Friedburg has placed English speaking students of Toxicology 
under obligations to him for translating this excellent book on Toxicology. 
—John Marshall, Deaji, Department of Medicine, University of Penn¬ 
sylvania 
Professor Friedburg’s excellent translation of this admirable book 
supplies to the English speaking public a most concise account of the very 
many poisons, and their effects and modes of treatment. A rapid diagnosis 
if as usually necessary can only be reached at times when just such a work 
is at hand, where in tabular form the eye can run rapidly over the list and 
determine the cause of trouble. Simple chemical tests are given for the 
recognition of the poisons and the therapeutic treatment is clearly in¬ 
dicated.— Charles A. Doremus, College of the City of New York. 
I have long been acquainted with the German edition and am glad 
that students will now have access to an English translation.— Victor 
Vaughan, Dean, Department of Medicine and Surgery, University of 
Michigan. 
The work will be found useful to students who care to examine more 
minutely into the action of poisons.— John J. Abel, Johns Hopkins Uni¬ 
versity.
