JAMES MILMAN).—A PRACTICAL TREATISE on the DISEASES of CHILDREN. By JAmMes MILMAN Cotry, M.D. Member of the Royal College of Physicians in London, &c.; Author of ‘‘ A Treatise on the Remittent Fever of Infants,” &c. and of ** Essays on Phlegmonous Erysipelas,” on “‘ Schirroide, Keloide, or Cancroide,”’ &c. &c. 8vo. 14s, tloth. ‘‘ Dr. Coley has in this volume presented to the profession a very useful and interesting addition to medical literature. We can recommend his work as the production of a diligent and experienced investigator in the difficult path of the curative science. The diagnosis of disease in young children requires the exercise of all our perceptive faculties, and every aid which the experience of others can suggest ; and Dr. Coley seems generally well fitted for consultation on this subject through the medium of the pages which lie before us. To his other qualifications we add, that his work affords ample testimony of an extensive acquaint- ance with the opinions of his brother authors. The chapters on the diseases of the intestinal canal are replete with sound observation, and point out methods of treatment that are evi- dently the result of extensive practice.”’—LANCET, COPLAND.—DICTIONARY OF PRACTICAL MEDICINE; A Library of Pathology, anda Digest of Medical Literature.

The PREFACE, with a Pathological Classification of Diseases, &c. forming a Key to the Systematic Study of Practical Medicine, as well as an arranged Table of the Contents of the Work, will accompany the last Part. An InpEx of the Individual Topics comprised under the various Chapters and Sections ot each article will also be given in the last Part. ‘We feel it a great duty to record our opinion—that, as there is no medical practitioner in this country, old or young, high or low, who will not derive great pleasure and great profit by consulting Dr. Copland’s Dictionary, so we think there is no one who should not add the work to his library. The information amassed in these volumes is literally enormous, and contemplated simply as an accumulation, it must excite astonishment as the production of an individual; but when it is further considered, that the whole of the materials have been most carefully selected from all existing sources, most patiently studied, valued, winnowed, digested, elaborated, and arranged into compact and simple forms, easily accessible, and readily available in practice, it is not easy to peint out, in the whole range of medical literature, any work by a single hand so much calculated to excite admiration of the industry and talents of the author. On every article contained in the volumes, the reader cannot fail to be struck with the writer’s most extensive learning, which has enabled him to collect knowledge from all authorities, ancient and modern, foreign and domestic ; and he will, at the same time, be no less surprised than gratified at the singular power which has arrang?d the whoe so lucidly and in such systematic order,””—BR1TISH AND FOREIGN MEDICAL KEVIEW. COOPER.—A DICTIONARY OF PRACTICAL SURGERY ; With all the most interesting Improvements down to the present period; an Account of the Instruments and Remedies employed in Surgery; the Etymology and Signification of the rincipal Terms ; and numerous References to Ancient and Modern Works, forming a Cata- ogue of Surgical Literature, arranged according to subjects.
