The subject is talven u]) witli a master hand. The part devoted to lat)or in all its various presentations, the mnnageinont and results, is ad- mirably arranged, and the views entertained will be found essentially modern, and the opinions ex- pressed trustworthy. The work abounds with plates, illustrating various obstetrical positions; they are admirably wrought, and afford great assistance to the student.—.V. 0. Medical and Sur- gical Ji/iiriml, Mareh, 18S0. If inquired of by a medical student what work ou obstetrics we should recommend for him, par fj-celleace, we would undoubtedly advise him to KIJS^G, A. F.

It is of convenient size, but what is of chief importance, its treatment of the various subjects is concise and plain. While tlie discussions and descriptions are sufficiently elabo- rate to render a very intelligible idea of them, yet all details not necessary for a full understandmg of the subject are omitted.—Cincinnati Medical News, Jan. 1880. It certainly is an admirable exposition of the science and practice of midwifery. Of course the additions made by the American editor. Dr. R. P. Harris, who never utters an idle word, and whose studious researches in some special departments of obstetrics are so well known to the profession, are of great value.— The American Practitioner, April, 1880. Though the book appears small externally, it contains as complete a consideration of obstetric sulijects as many larger volumes, and this is chiefly owing to a directness of expi-essioUj and an Avoidance of repetition and of waste of words. The author endeavors to place theories, causes of disease and methods of treatment in that order which, by weight of authority, they merit. His e.xcel lent judgment has availed him well in this effort. While, in one sense, the book is an excel- lent obstetric dictionary, and well suited to the stu- dent, it is also of value to the general practitioner, who often desires to find a resume of information upon a given subject. It will be of further value to the latter, as, in our opinion, the author holds most sensible views on practical matters. The book is admirably arranged for reference, being well paragraphed, with suitable sub-divisions, and well inde.xed.—American Journal of Obstetrics, Aug. 1882. TABNIEB, S., and CHAWTHFUIZ, G.
