    jyUMSTEAD [FREEMAN J.), M.D., Professor of Venereal Diseases at the Ool. of Phys. and Surg., New York, &e. THE PATHOLOGY AND TREATMENT OF YENEREAL DIS- BASES. Including the results of recent investigations upon the subject. Third edition, revised and enlarged, with illustrations. In one large and handsome octavo volume ot over 700 pages, extra cloth, $6 00 ; leather, $6 00. {J^cst Issued.) In preparing this standard work again for the press, the author has subjected it to a very thorough revision. Many portions have been rewritten, and much new matter added, in order to bring it completely on a level with the most advanced condition of syphilography, but by careful compression of the text of previous editions, the work has been increased by only sixty-four pages. The labor thus bestowed upon it, it is hoped, will insure for it a continuance of its position as a complete and trustworthy guide for the practitioner. much special commendation as if its predecessors had not been published. As a thoroughly practical book on a class of diseases which form a large share Oi nearly every physician's practice, the volume before us is bv far the best of which we have knowledge.— N. r. Medical Gazette, Jan. 28, 1871. It is rare in the history of medicine to find any one book which contains all that a practitioner needs to know; while the possessor of Bumstead on Vene- real has no occasion to look outside of its covers for anything practical connected with the diagnosis, his- tory, or Ireatment of these affections.—iV. ¥. Medical Journal, March, 1871. It is the most complete book with which we are ac- quainted in the language. The latest views of the best authorities are put forward, and the information if well arranged—a great point for the student, and sfiU more for the practitioner. The subjects of vis- ceral syphilis, syphilitic affections of the eyes, and the treatment of syphilis by repeated inoculations, are very fully discussed.—Loiidon Lancet, Jan. 7, 1871. Dr. Bumstead's work is already so universally known as the best treatise in the English language on venereal diseases, that it may seem almost superflu- ous to say more of it than that a new edition has been issued. But the author's industry has rendered this new edition virtually a new work, and so merits as (WLLERIER [A.], and ^ Surgeon to the Hdpital du Midi. •■ College of nUMSTEAD (FREEMAN J.), Professor of Venereal Diseases in the C< Physicians and Surgeons, N. ¥. AN ATLAS OF YENEREAL DISEASES. Translated and Edited by Freeman J. Bumstead. In one large imperial 4to. volume of 328 pages, double-columns, with 26 plates, containing about 150 figures, beautifully colored, many of them the size of life; strongly bound in extra cloth, $17 00 ; also, in five parts, stout wrappers for mailing, at $3 per part. (Lately Published.) Anticipating a very large sale for this work, it is offered at the very low price of Three Dol- lars a Part, thus placing it within the reach of all who are interested in this department of prac- tice. Gentlemen desiring early impressions of the plates would do well to order it without delay. A specimen of the plates and text sent free by mail, on receipt of 25 cents. We wish for once that our province was not restrict- ed to methods of treatment, that we might say some- thing of the exquisite colored plates in this volume. —London Practitioner, May, 1869. As a whole, it teaches a means of plates and print. 13, 1869. 1 that can be taught by ■rLondon Lancet, March Superior to anything of the kind ever before issued on this continent.—Canada Med. Journal, March, '69. The practitioner who desires to understand this bfvmch of medicine thoroughly should obtain this, the most complete and best work ever published.— D^nninion Med. Journal, May, 1869. This is a work of master hands on both sides. M. CuUerier is scarcely second to, we think we may truly say is a peer of the illustrious and venerable Eicord, vlule in this country we do not hesitate to say that r-r. Bumstead, as an authority, is without a rival Assuring our readers that these illustrations tell the whole history of venereal disease, from its inception to its end, we do not know a single medical work, which for its kind is more necessary for them to have. —Calif irnia Med. Gazette, March, 1869. The most splendidly illustrated work in the lan- guage, and in our opinion far more useful than the French original.—Am. Journ. Med. Sciences, Jan.'69. The fifth and concluding number of this magnificent work has reached us, and we have no hesitation in saying that its illustrations surpass those of previous numbers.—.BosfoTi Med. and Surg. Journal, Jan. 14, 1869. Other writers besides M. Cullerier have given ns a good account of the diseases of which he treats, but no one has furnished us with such a complete series of illustrations of the venereal diseases. There is, however, an additional interest and value possessed by the volume before us ; for it is an American reprint and translation of M. CuUerier's work, with inci- dental remarks by one of the most eminent American syphilographers, Mr. Bumstead.—5rii. and For. Medico-Ohir. Review, July, 1869.

Bringing, as it does, the entire literature of the dis- ease down to the present day, and giving with great ability the results of modern research, it is in every reispect a most desirable work, and one which should find a place in the library of every surgeon.—CoZi- fornia Med. Gazette, June, 1869. In Considering the scope of the book and the careful attention to the manifold aspects and details of its subj ect, it is wonderfully concise. All these qualities render it an especially valuable book to the beginner to whom we would most earnestly recommend its study; while it is no less useful to the practitioner.— St. Louis Med. and Surg. Journal, May, 1869. The most convenient and ready book of reference we have met with.—iV^. Y. Med. Record, May 1,1869. Most admirably arranged for both student and prac- titioner, no other work on the subject equals it; it is more simple, more easily studied.—Buffalo Med. and Surg.
