![MR. TUSON, F.R.S., F.L.S. Surgeon to the Middlesex Hospital. Al«rATOI«ICil.Ii DISSECTED PXiATES. A NEW AND IMPROVED SYSTEM OE MYOLOGY. Illustrated by Plates on a peculiar construction ; containing, and clearly demon- strating the whole of the Muscles in the Human Body, in Layers, as they appear on Dissection. Second Edition, large folio, £3 12s. Tliis is the closest imitation of nature tliat can possibly be effected on paper. Each muscle, coloured and proportioned, can be raised, as in dissection, exposing layer after layer, the various strata, till we come to the bone. The plan is exceedingly ingenious, and the execution highly meritorious.—Medico-C/iinirgical Gaxette. In these plates, the muscles, being separately lithographed, are cut out and arranged stratum superstratum, in their proper situation on the bone, so as clearly to demonstrate their origins, insertions, positions, shapes, &c., thus forming, next to actual ilissection, the most ready and easy method of learmiig the human body.—inncei. BY THE SAME AUTHOR, A SUPPLEMENT TO MYOLOGY. lUustrated by Coloured Plates on a peculiar construction, containing the Arteries, Veins, Nerves and Lym- phatics, the Abdominal and Thoracic Viscera, the Brain, the Ear, the Eye, &c. &c. £4 12s. We have ab-eady,ou several occasions, had reason to speak favourably of Mr.Tuson; on the present occasion, we cannot resist the pleasure of expressing the very high opinion we entertaui of his ability, ingenuity, and industry. These plates do him credit; they aie happily conceived, and as happily executed. To the student we recommend the work, as serving all that such deli- neations can—the assisting, not the superseding of dissection.—Uledico-Chirurgical Review. These paintings must not be regarded as mere drawings or paintings, but as dissections of drawings; and, in point of accuracy and utility, are second only to actual dissections of the human body. We feel no hesitation in sayuig, that this work is evidently a performance of great labour, and that the manner in which it is executed reflects infinite credit on the talents of the author.—Lancet. BY THE SAME AUTHOR, THE ANATOMY AND SUEGERY OE INGUINAL AND FEMORAL HERNIA. Illustrated by Plates Coloured from Nature, and interspersed with Practical Remarks. Large folio, 2l. 2s. This work wiU be of especial service to the practitioner in the coxmtry.—Medico.Quarterly Review. The plates are so arranged as to shew the mechanism both of femoral and inguinal hernia in a very clear and satisfactory manner; they are thus calculated to assist in a remaikable degree the labour of the student.—iWeiica/ Gazette.

This is the most complete epitome of modern anatomy that has appeared in this country It IS exactly that kind of work we requu-ed when we studied anatomy in the dissecting room of Bartholomew's Hospital, under Mr. Abemethy, and the work we could place in tlie hands of any person who wishes to understand the anatomy of the human hoAy .-Gaxette of Health tpr,rf]„^th!f? ° f ,^ present compendium is new, and its execution good.
