Illustrated by numerous cases and engravingjs. R«c- ond American, from, the Second Revised and Enlarged London Edition. In one large and handsome octavo volume of 616 pages, with a colored plate ; extra cloth, $4 50. {Just Issued.) The author has subjected this work to a very thorough revision, and has sought to embody in it the results of the latest experience and investigations. Although every effort has been made to keep it within the limits of its former size, it has been enlarged by a hundred pages, many new wood-cuts have been introduced, and also a colored plate representing the appearance of the different varieties of urine, while the price has been retained at the former very moderate rate. In every respect it is therefore presented as worthy to maintain the position which it has acquired as a leading authority on a large, important, and perplexing class of affections. A few notices of the first edition are appended. diseases we have examined. It is peculiarly adapt<>d to the wants of the majority of American practition- ers from its clearness and simple announcement of the facts in relation to diagnosis and treatment of urinary disorders, and contains in condensed form the investi- gations of Bence Jones, Bird, Beale, Hassall, Prout, and a host of other well-known writers upon this sub- ject. The characters of urine, physiological and pa- thological, as indicated to the naked eye as well as by microscopical and chemical investigations, are con- cisely represented both by description and by well executed engravings.—Cincinnati Journ. of Med. The plan, it will thus be seen, is very complete, ani the manner in which it has been carried out is in the bia;hest degree satisfactory. The characters of the different deposits are very well described, and the microscopic appearances they present are illus- trated by numerous well executed engravings. It only remains to us to strongly recommend to our readers Dr. Roberts's work, as containing an admira- ble resume of the present state of knowledge of uri- nary diseases, and as a safe and reliable giiide to the clinical observer.—Edin.

A book that we believe will be found a valuable The chapters on diagnosis and treatment are very good, and the student and young practitioner will find them full of valuable practical hints. The third part, on the urine, is excellent, and we cordially recommend its perusal. The author has arranged his matter in a somewhat novel, and, we think, use- ful form. HeJ'e everything can be easily found, and, what is more important, easily read, for all the dry details of larger books here acquire a new interest from the author's arrangement.

The treatise of Dr. Basham differs from the rest ia its special adaptation to clinical study, and its con- densed and almost aphorismal style, which makes it easily read and easily understood. Besides, the author expresses some new views, which are well worthy of consideration. The volume is a valnabl« addition to this department of knowledge.—Pacific Med. and Surg. Journal, July, 1870.

Taken as a whole, the work before us furnishes a short but reliable account of the pathology and treat- ment of a class of very common but certainly highly obscure disorders. The advanced student will tind it a rich mine of valuable facts, while the medical prac- titioner will derive from it many a suggestive hint to aid him in the diagnosis of nervous cases, and in determining the true indications for their ameliora- tion or cure.—Amer.
