    FIELD.— POSTHUMOUS EXTRACTS FROM THE VETERINARY RECORDS OF THE LATE JOHN FIELD. Edited by his Brother, William Field, Vete- rinary Surgeon, London. 8vo. 8s. hoards. “A collection of remarkable cases of disease in the horse, observed hi/ the late Mr. Field, during his extensive practice; icith a fete papers on particular diseases, either read before the J'eterinary Medical Society, or, seemingly, sketched with that end in view. To pass a decided judgment on the veterinary value of the volume is beyond our power ; but the cases appear to be noted with great clearness in their symptoms, treatment, and post-mortem examination. We should conceive the work likely to be of considerable use to veterinary surgeons,—who, lucky people! do not as yet appear overburdened with books on their business; and not with- out interest to the medical practitioner, who would study comparative surgery as well as comparative anatomy.— Spectator.
