SOLD ONLY BY SUBSCRIPTIOy. Tins tmnslation, made from advance sheets of the second German edition, will introduce to the English-speaking public of this country a book the high quali- ties of which have won for it the first place among works of its cliu's in Europe. Pr. Puchss great opportunities for clinical observation, combined with his thorough pi-actical knowledge of anatomical and pathological science, have enabled him to write a treatise which, for scientific accuracy and all-round completeness, will com- pare favorably with any work of its character; and his experience as a teacher and lecturer has enabled him to present the matter in a form eminently suited to the needs of the medical student and the general practitioner. Thus the work, while full, methodical, and in all respects brought down to the latest point of ophthalmo- logical science, is couched in a clear and attractive style, which renders the book very easy reading; and great judgment has been shown in the amount of space allotted to the various subjects, those tluit are important receiving full attention, while matters of a merely scientific interest or dubious points are either briefly t' 'uehcd upon or are relegated to the fine print, wliere those who are curious in such matters can find them, but where they do not interfere with the continuity of the rest of the test.
