    SIMON’S CHEMISTRY OF MAN. ANIMAL CHEMISTRY. WITH REFERENCE TO THE PHYSIOLOGY AND PATHOLOGY OF MAN. BY DR. J. FRANZ SIMON. TRANSLATED AND EDITED BY GEORGE E. DAY, M.A. & L.M. Cantas., &c. With Plates, in One Volume, 8vo. ** A work that obtained for its author a European reputation, and is universally regarded as by far the most complete treatise that has yet appeared on Physiological Chemistry.2»— Editor’s Preface. ** No treatise on physiological chemistry approaches, in fullness and accuracy of detail, the work which stands at the head of this article. It is the production of a man of true German assiduity, who has added to his own researches the results of the labours of nearly every other inquirer in this interesting branch of science. The death of such a labourer, which is mentioned in the preface to the work as having occurred prematurely in 1842, is indeed a calamity to science. He had hardly reached the middle term of life, and yet had made himself known all over Europe, and in our country, where his name has been familiar for several years as among the most successful of the cultivators of the chemistry OF POOR. use & It is a vast repository of facts, to which the teacher and student may refer with equal satisfaction.”°—Phe Western Journal of Medicine and Surgery. ** Several reasons combine to render Dr. Simon’s work peculiarly valuable. In the first place, the author evidently understands his subject, and discusses it with great ability; in the next place, his opinions have been formed, in a great measure, from original investiga- tions; and, lastly, he seems to have no theories beyond facts—no dogmas to sustain at the expense of truth and principle; but he enters upon the investigation like a true philoso- pher, and the result is such as we have seen.,—The Western Lancet.

In One Octavo Volume, Sheep. *¢ We cannot too strongly recommend the diligent study of this volume. The work cannot fail to rank the name of its author among the most enlightened pathologists and soundest practitioners of the day.””—Medico-Chirurgical Review. ** With the new year, Messrs. Lea & Blanchard have brought out one of those sterling works on medicine which it refreshes one to examine. It is a sound, practical guide in every-day practice, and opportune, from the circumstance that it does not interfere with any recent publication. Those only who have felt how difficult it is to decide, or rather determine with certainty upon the true condition of the liver, under some indications of the system, can appreciate a treatise like this..*—Boston Med. and Surg.
