    AW AMEBIC AN SYSTJEII OF GYNjFCOLOGY. A System of Gynsecology, in Treatises by Various Authors. In active preparation. THOMAS, T. GAIZLAMD, M. D., Professor of Obstetrics, etc., in the College of Physicians and Surgeons, N. Y. A Practical Treatise on the Diseases of Women. Fiftli edition, thoroughly revised and rewritten.

The words whiuh follow fifth edition are iti It has been enlarged .md eni-efiilly revised. Tlie this case no mere formal announcement. The alterations and additions wliich have been made are both numerous and important. The attraction and the permanent character of this book lie in the clearness and truth of the clinical descriptions of diseases; the fertility of the author in thera- peutic resources and the fulness with which the details of treatment are described; the definite character of the teaching; and last, but not least, the evident candor which pervades it. We would also particularize the fulness with which the his- tory of the subject is gone into, which makes the book additionally interesting and gives it value as a work of reference.—London Medical Times and Gazette, July 30,1881. The determination of the author to keep his author has brought it fully abreast with the times, and as the wave of gynrecological progression lias been widespread and rapid during the twelve years that have elapsed since the issue of the first edition, one can conceive of tlie great improve- ment tills edition must be upon the earlier. It is a condensed encyclopfedia of gynrecological medi- cine. The style of arrangement, the masterly manner in which each subject is treated, and the honest convictions derived from probably tlie largest clinical experience in that specialty of any in this country, all serve to commend it in tlie liighest terms to the practitioner.—ISaahviUe Jour, of Med. and Surg., Jan. 1881. That the previous editions of the treatise of Dr. Thomas were thought worthy of translation into book foremost in the rank of works on gyneecology | German, French, Italian and Spanish, is enough is most gratifying. Recognizing the fact that this can only be accomplished by frequent and thor- ough revision, he has spared no pains to make tlie present edition more desirable even than the pre- vious one. As a book of reference for the busy practitioner it is unequalled.—Boston Medical and Surgical Journal, April 7, ISSO. to give it the stamp of genuine merit. At home^it has made its way into the library of every obstet- rician and gyncecologist as a safeguide to practice. No small number of additions have been made to the present edition to make it correspond to re- cent improvements in treatment.—Pacific Medical and Surgical Journal, Jan. 1881. JEDIS, ABTHUn W., M.

The special qualities which are cological manipulations and operations are full, conspicuous are thoroughness in covering the ; clear and practical. Much care has also been be- whole ground, clearness of description and con- stowed on the parts of the book which deal with ciseness of statement. Another marked feature of ; diagnosis—we note especially the pages dealing the book is the attention paid to the details of i with the differentiation, one'from another, of the many minor surgical operations and procedures, ' different kinds of abdominal tumors.

These | of knowledge he most needs in his daily work, and he will be pleased with the clearness and fulness of the information there given.—The Practitioner, Feb. 1882. It is an excellent manual—clear, decided, suffi- ciently compreliensive for a beginner, extremely handy for any practitioner, safe, cautious and pre- cise. The book reminds us constantly of Thomas' treatise, on which it seems to have been somewhat modelled. As a summary .of existing knowledge, empirical and other, it is really to be commended. —Archives of Medicine, June, 1882. are among the more common rriethods of treat- ment, and yet very little is said about them in many of the text^books. The book is one to be warmly recommended especially to students and general practitioners, who need a concise but com- plete resume of the whole subject. Specialists, too, will find many useful hints in its pages.—Boston Med. and Surg. Journ., March 2, 1882. The greatest pains have been taken with the sections relating to treatment.
