    AN AMERICAN TEXT=BOOK OF PATHOLOGY. Edited by John Guiteras, M.D., Professor of General Pathology and of Morbid Anatomy in the University of Pennsylvania; and David Riesman, M.D., Demonstrator of Pathological Histology in the University of Pennsylvania. In Preparation. AN AMERICAN TEXT-BOOK OF PHYSIOLOGY. By i o of the Leading Physiologists of America. Edited by William H. Howell, Ph.D., M.D., Professor of Physiology in the Johns Hop- kins University, Baltimore, Md. One handsome imperial octavo volume of 1052 pages. Illustrated. Cloth, $6.00 net; Sheep or Half Morocco, $7-00 net. Sold by Subscription. We can commend it most heartily, not only to all students of physiology, but to every physician and pathologist, as a valuable and comprehensive work of reference, written by men who are of eminent authority in their own special subjects.—London Lancet. To the practitioner of medicine and to the advanced student this volume constitutes, we believe, the best exposition of the present status of the science of physiology in the English language.—American Journal of the Medical Sciences. AN AMERICAN TEXT-BOOK OF SURGERY. Second Edition. By 13 Eminent Professors of Surgery. Edited by William W. Keen, M.D., LL.D., and J. William White, M.D., Ph.D. Handsome imperial octavo volume of 1250 pages, with 500 wood-cuts in the text, and 39 colored and half-tone plates. Thoroughly revised and enlarged, with a section devoted to The Use of the Rontgen Rays in Surgery. Cloth, $7.00 net; Sheep or Half Morocco, $8.00 net. Sold by Sub- scription. Personally, I should not mind it being called THE Text-Book (instead of A Text- Book), for I know of no single volume which contains so readable and complete an account of the science and art of Surgery as this does.—Edmund Owen, F.R.C.S., Member of the Board of Examiners of the Royal College of Stergeons, England. If this text-book is a fair reflex of the present position of American surgery, we must admit it is of a very high order of merit, and that English surgeons will have to look very carefully to their laurels if they are to preserve a position in the van of surgical practice.— London Lancet. AN AMERICAN TEXT=BOOK OF THE THEORY AND PRACTICE OF MEDICINE. By 12 Distinguished American Practitioners. Edited by William Pepper, M.D., LL.D., Professor of the Theory and Practice of Medi- cine and of Clinical Medicine in the University of Pennsylvania. Two handsome imperial octavo volumes of about 1000 pages each. Illus- trated. Prices per volume : Cloth, $5.00 net; Sheep or Half Morocco, $6.00 net. Sold by Subscription. I am quite sure it will commend itself both to practitioners and students of medicine, and become one of our most popular text-books.—Alfred Loomis, M.D., LL.D., Pro- fessor of Pathology and Practice of Medicine, University of the City of New York. We reviewed the first volume of this work, and said : ' It is undoubtedly one of the best text-books on the practice of medicine which we possess.' A consideration of the second and last volume leads us to modify that verdict and to say that the completed work is in our opinion the best of its kind it has ever been our fortune to see.—New York Medical Journal.
