    DeSchweinitz’s Diseases of the Eye The New (6th) Edition Diseases of the Eye: A Handbook of Ophthalmic Practice. By G. E. deSchweinitz, M.D., Professor of Ophthalmology in the Uni¬ versity of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, etc. Handsome octavo of 945 pages, 354 text-illustrations, and 7 chromo-lithographic plates. Cloth, $5.00 net; Sheep or Half Morocco, $6.50 net. WITH 354 TEXT-ILLUSTRATIONS AND 7 COLORED PLATES THE STANDARD AUTHORITY Dr. deSchweinitz’s book has long been recognized as a standard authority upon eye diseases, the reputation of its author for accuracy of statement placing it far in the front of works on this subject. For this edition Dr. deSchweinitz has subjected his book to a most thorough revision. Fifteen new subjects have been added, ten of those in the former edition have been rewritten, and throughout the book reference has been made to vaccine and serum therapy, to the relation of tuberculosis to ocular disease, and to the value of tuberculin as a diagnostic and therapeutic agent. The text is fully illustrated with black and white cuts and colored plates, and in every way the book maintains its reputation as an authority upon the eye. PERSONAL AND PRESS OPINIONS Samuel Theobald, M.D., Clinical Professor of Ophthalmology, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore. “ It is a work that I have held in high esteem, and is one of the two or three books upon the eye which I have been in the habit of recommending to my students in the Johns Hopkins Medical School.” University of Pennsylvania Medical Bulletin “Upon reading through the contents of this book we are impressed by the remarkable fulness with which it reflects The notable contributions recently made to ophthalmic literature. No important subject within its province has been neglected.” Johns Hopkins Hospital Bulletin “No single chapter can be selected as the best. They are all the product of a finished authorship and the work of an exceptional ophthalmologist. The work is certainly one of the best on ophthalmology extant, and probably the best by an American author.
