Adjunct Professor of Mid- , wifery, in the University of Pennsylvania, 2 Vols. 8vo. “We have no hesitation in recommending it as deci- dedly one of the best systems of medicine extant. The tenor ofthe work in general reflects the highest honor on Dr. Dewees’s talents, industry, and capacity for the exe- eution of the arduous task which he had undertaken. It is one of the most able and satisfactory works which mod- _ #) ern times have produced, and will be a standard authori- § ty.”—London Med. and Surg. Journal, Aug. 1830. IDEWEES on tHe DISEASES or CHIL- ~ DREN, 4th ed. In 8vo. The objects of this work are, 1st, to teach those who # have the charge of children, either as parent or guar- { dian, the most approved methods of securing and im- | proving their physical powers. This is attempted by | pointing out the duties which the parent or the guar- dian owes for this purpose, to this interesting, ‘but {helpless class of beings, and the manner by which # their duties shall be fulfilled. And 2d, to render available a long experience to these objects of our affection when they become diseased. In attempting this, the author has avoided as much as’ possible, “technicality ;” and has given, if he does not flatter ‘4 himself too much, to each disease of which he treats, _ fjits appropriate and designating characters, with a i fidelity that will prevent any two being confounded together, with the best mode of treating them, that jeither his own experience or that of others has sug- s gested. | DEWEES on rue DISEASES or FEMALES, |. 3d edition, with Additions.
