So many kind expiesbions oi welcome have lieen showered upon each successive ediiuu of ihis val- uable treatise, that f^carcely ^myihing leuiaias for us to lio but to eXi end the customary cordial greet- ing. It is the only comiilete worlj on the subject of Fractures in ttie English language We con- gratulate the accomplished author on the deserved success of his work, and hope Iha; he may live to have many sncceediug editions pas- under his skill- ed supervision.—Phila. Coll. and Clin. Record. Nov. 1.5, 1880. Universal verdict has pronounced it, humanly speaking, a perleit treat se upon this subject. As it is the only complet and illnsirated work in any language treating of fracture- and dislocations, it is safe to >ifiirm that everj wide-awake surgeon and general practitioner will regard it a.^ iudispeni-able to the safe and pleasant conduct of their profes- sional work.—Detroit Lancet, Nov. IS, ISSO. Dr Hamilton has devottd great labor to the study of these subjects. His lavge experience, extended research, 'ud patien investigation liave made him one of the higiie^t authorities among living writers in ibis bra uch of surg- ry This work is systematic and pra' tical in its arraBgement, auu presents its subject matter ilearly and f. rcibly to the reader or student.—Maryland Medical Jozirnal. Nov.15 1880. The only complete work on its subjectin the Enij lish tongue, and, indeed, may now iie .said to be the only work of its kind in any I'.ngue. It would require au exceedingly critical •xamiuatiou to de- teci iu it any pariicnlars in which t mijjhi be im- proved. The work is a monument to American snrtjery, and will long serve to kei p green the memory of its venerable author.—JlTiC/iigraTi Med News, Nov. 10, ISSl. A SHHURST {JOHN, Jr.), M.D., .n.

In one very large and handsome octavo volume oi over 1000 pages, with 542 illustrations. Cloth, $6; leather, $7; half Russia, $7 50. (Just Issued.) Conscientiousness and thoroughness are two very marked traits of character in the author of this book. Out of these traits largely has grown the success of his mental fruit In the past, and the pre- sent offer seems in no wise an exception to what has gone before. The general arrangement of the vol- ume is the same as in the first edition, but es'ery pa,rt has been carefully revised, and much new matter added.—P/ii/a. Med. Times, Feb. 1, 1879. The favorable reception of the first edition is a guarantee of the popularity of this edition, which is fresh from the editor's hands with many enlarge- ments and improvements. The author of this work is deservedly popular as an editor and writer, and his contributions to the literature of surgery have gained for him wide reputation. The volume now offered the profession will add new laurels to those already won by previous contributions. We can only add that the work is well arrang< d, filled <vith practical matter, and contains in brief and clear language all that is necessary to be learned by the student of surgery whilst in attendance upon lec- tures, or the general practitioner in his daily routine practice.—Md. Med. J<nirnal, Jan. 1879. The fact that this work has reached a second edi- tion so very soon after the publication of the first one, speaks more highly of its merits than anything we might say in the way of commendation. It seems to have immediately gained the favor of stu- dents and physicians. — (Hncin. Med. News, Jau. '79. We have previously spoken of Dr. Ashhurst's work in terms of praise. We wish to reiterate those terms here, and to add that no more satisfactory representation of modern surgery has yet fallen from the press. In point of judicial fairness, of power of Condensation, of accuracy and conciseuess of expression and thoroughly good Euglisli, Prof. Ashhurst has no superior among the surgical writers in America.—Am.
