Lancet.— During the last twelve years a monumental work on Anatomy has been si but steadily progressing in France under the able direction el Professor Paul Poixia with the collaboration of Professor A. Charpey. . . . The section on Lymphatics . . . has now been translated into English by Mr. Leaf, and wo congratulate him on having rendered the French into English with great accuracy and on prescntin: to his countrymen, an excellent a of the present state of knowledge of the Lymphatics as it is taught and understood m France. . . . This work on the Lymphatics will prove useful to the anatomist, the physiologist, and the practitioner. British Medical Journal.— Mr. Cecil H. Leafs translation of the volume on ' The Lym- phatics ' which constitutes a portion of the Treatise of Human Anatomy published under the editorship of Professors Poirier and Charpey, leaves little to be desired, and this was almost to be expected, for the subject is one upon which Mr. Leaf has done excellent work. . . . The first no pages are devoted to the general anatomy of the Lymphatic System, written by Pr. Gabriel Dclamcre. ... In the second and larger portico ol the hook Professor Poirier and Pro- fessor Cuneo describe the Lymphatic vessel? and glands in the human body, and their descriptj r? include the results of their own investigations. Athen.bum.— There can be littledoubt that this book wilt prove a valuable addition to our medical and anatomical libraries. It has been accurately translated by Mr. C. H. Leaf. The illustrations are numerous and unusually good ; many of the wood-cuts are taker- original drawings or preparations by the joint Authors. ... To each section is appended a bibliography which must largely enhance the value of the book.
