MINOR SURGERY; or, Hints on the Every-day Duties of the Surgeon. Illus- trated by two hundred and forty-seven illustrations. Third and enlarged edition. In one hand- some royal 12mo. volume, pp. 456. In leather, $2 25; extra cloth, $2 00. And a capital little book it is. . . Minor Surgery, we repeat, is really Major Surgery, and anything which teaches it is worth having. So we cordially recommend this little book of Dr. Smith's.—Med.- Chir. Review. This beautiful little work has been compiled with a view to the wants of the profession in the matter of bandaging, &c, and well and ably has the author performed his labors. AVell adapted to give the requisite information on the subjects of which it treats.—Medical Examiner. The directions are plain, and illustrated through- out with clear engravings.—London, Lancet. One of the best works they can consult on the subject of which it treats.—Southern Journal of Medicine and Pharmacy. BY THE SAME AUTHOR, AND HORNER (WILLIAM E.), M.D., Late Professor of Anatomy in the University of Pennsylvania. AN ANATOMICAL ATLAS, illustrative of the Structure of the Human Body. In one volume, large imperial octavo, extra cloth, with about six hundred and fifty beautiful figures. $3 00. A work such as the present is therefore highly useful to the student, and we commend this one to their attention.—A?nerican Journal of Medical Sciences. No operator, however eminent, need hesitate to consult this unpretending yet excellent book. Those who are young in the business would find Dr. Smith's treatise a necessary companion, after once under- standing its true character.—Boston Med. and Surg. Journal. No young practitioner should be without this little volume; and we venture to assert, that it maybe consulted by the senior members of the profession with more real benefit, than the more voluminous works.—Western Lancet. These figures are well selected, and present a complete and accurate representation of that won- derful fabric, the human body. The plan of this Atlas, which renders it so peculiarly convenient for the student, and its superb artistical execution, have been already pointed out. We must congratu- late the student upon the completion of this Atlas, as it is the most convenient work of the kind that has yet appeared ; and we must add, the very beau- tiful manner in which it is got up is so creditable to the country as to be flattering to our national pride.—American Medical Journal. SARGENT (F. W.), M. D. ON BANDAGING AND OTHER OPERATIONS OF MINOR SURGERY. Second edition, enlarged. One handsome royal 12mo. vol., of nearly 400 pages, with 182 wood- cuts. {Now Ready, 1856.) Extra cloth, $1 40; leather, $1 50. This very useful little work has long been a favor- ously illustrated by the enterprising publishers, and ite with practitioners and students. The recent call for a new edition has induced its author to make numerous important additions. A slight alteration in the size of the page has enabled him to introduce the new matter, to the extent of some fifty pages of the former edition, at the same time that his volume is rendered still more compact than its less compre- hensive predecessor. A double gain in thus effected, which, in a vade-mecum of this kind, is a material improvement.—Am. Medical Journal. Sargent's Minor Surgery has always been popular, and deservedly so. It furnishes that knowledge of the most frequently requisite performances of surgical art which cannot be entirely understood by attend- ing clinical lectures. The art of bandaging, which is regularly taught in Europe, is very frequently overlooked by teachers in this country; the student and junior practitioner, therefore, may often require that knowledge which this little volume so tersely and happily supplies. It is neatly printed and copi- should be possessed by all who desire to be thorough- ly conversant with the details of this branch of our art.—Charleston Med. Journ. and Review, March, 1856. A work that has been so long and favorably known to the profession as Dr. Sargent's Minor Surgery, needs no commendation from us. We would remark, however, in this connection, that minor surgery sel- dom gets that attention in our schools that its im- portance deserves. Our larger works are also very defective in their teaching on these small practical points. This little book will supply the void which all must feel who have not studied its pages.—West- ern Lancet, March, 1856. We confess our indebtedness to this little volume on many occasions, and can warmly recommend it to our readers, as it is not above the consideration of the oldest and most experienced.—American Lan- cet, March, 1856.
