    LECTUIiES ON PHTHISIS. By Professor Niemeyee. Translated by Dr. Baumlee. ^ “ 2^iemeyer’s work is eminently suggestive not only as regards pathology, but also as regards treatment and prevention. There is no work on treat- ment of Phthisis in the English language so advanced in its pathology; it leaves the crude theories of Laennec and his followers far in the rear, and by showing the essential dependence of tubercle on preceding inflainatory pro- cesses, it shows also how we may w.ard olF this intractable disease from our patients and how we may most usefully employ the remedies at band for its prevention.”—Edinburgh Medical Journal, December, 1870. Manual of human and compara-tive his- tology, By S. Steickee. Vol. I. Translated by Mr. PowEE. “ This work, edited by Strieker, and having as its contributors nearly all of the best names in Germany, is one well deserving of attention, and constitute?, we think, a very valuable addition to the stores of the Eew Sydenham Society.” —Medical Times and Gazette, December 10, 1870. “There has hitherto been no work which contained a full and complete account of the various elements of animal structure, still less of the way in which minute examination of these elements should be conducted. The Book before us supplies this want in a very remarkable degree. * * * The work is illustrated by over a hundrcdVoodcuts. Modern medical literature of the higher class so teems with histological references, that a treatise in which they arc explained has become almost a necessity.”—Lancet, Dec. 3, 1870, Tenth fasciculus of the atlas of skin DISEASES, comprising Life-Size Portraits of:—SCABIES (on band of Child). SCABIES (with oedema, &o.) SCABIES NORVEGICA. PORRIGO CONTAGIOSUM AFTER VACCINATION. CIRCI- NATfi ERUPTIONS IN CONGENITAL SYPHILIS. TRUE LEPROSY (tubercular form). TRUE LEPROSY (anaesthetic form). ON THE TEMPERATURE IN DISEASES: A MANUAL OF MEDICAL THERMOMETRY. By Dr. C. A. Wuxdeelich. (Leipzig). Translated by Dr, Bathtjest Woodman. With forty Woodcuts and seven Lithographs. It is well to recollect that this contains not only observations on the temperature iu disease, but also in health, and is a complete epitome as to the history of the subject up to date. It is no infallible guide either to diagnosis or treatment, but it is, nevertheless, a work of reference absolutely necessary for all who would keep themselves abreast of the day in relation to so im- portant a matter as corporeal temperature.”—Edia. Med. Journ., May, 1872. “ Wo ought long since to have noticed this welcome and valuable'publi- cation ot the New Sydenham Society, *lts appearance in an English dress
