![I>AZTOW, JOSW C, M. D., Professor of Physiology in the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York, etc. A Treatise on Human Physiology. Designed for the use of Students and Practitioners of Medicine. Seventh edition, thoroughly revised and rewritten. In one very handsomeoctavo vokime of 722 pages, with 252 beautiful engravings on wood. Cloth, $5.00; leather, $6.00; very handsome half Russia, raised bands, $6.50. This edition of Dr. Dalton's well-known work bears evidence of having been thoroughly and carefully revised. From the first appearance of the book it has been a favorite, owing as well to the author's renown as an oral teacher as to the charm of simplicity with which, as a writer, he always succeeds in investing even intricate sub- jects It must be gratifying to him to observe the frequency with which his work,written for students and practitioners, is quoted by other writers on physiology. This fact attests its value, and, in great measure, its originality. It now needs no such seal of approbation, however, for the thou- sands who have studied it in its various editions have never been in any doubt as to its sterling worth.—N. Y. Medical Journal and Obstetrical Re- view, Oct. 1882. Professor Dalton's well-known and deservedly- appreciated work has long passed the stage at which it could be reviewed in the ordinary sense. The work is eminently one for the medical prac- titioner, since it treats most fully of those branches of physiology which have a direct bearing on the diagnosis and treatment of disease. The work is one which we can highly recommend to all our readers.—Dublin Journal of Medical Science, Feb.'83. Certainly no physiological work as ever issued from the press that presented its subject-matter in a clearer and more attractive light. Almost every page bears evidence of the exhaustive revision that has taken place. The material is placed in a more compact form, yet its delightful charm is re- tained, and no subject is thrown into obscurity. Altogether this edition is far in advance of any previous one, and will tend to keep the profession posted as to the most recent additions to our physiological knowledge.—Michigan Medical News, April, 1882. One can scarcely open a college catalogue that does not have mention of Dalton's Physiology as the recommended text or consultation-book. For American students we would unreservedly recom- mendDr. Dalton's work.— Va.Med.Monthly, July,^&'i. FOSTER, MICHAEL, M, 2>., F, JR, S., Prelector in Physiology and Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, England. * Text-Book of Physiology. Third American from the fourth English edition, with notes and additions by E. T. Reichert, M. D., Professor of Physiology in the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania. In one handsome royal 12mo. volume of 908 pages, with 271 illustrations. Cloth, $3.25 ; leather, $3.75. will be found to be much increased.—Cincinnati Medical News, July 1885. For several years Foster's Physiology has occu- pied a peculiar and quite enviable position among the textbooks on this most important branch of medicine. In the highest sense scientific, it should nevertheless be the constant companion of every student of medicine. To the student who is not engaged in special physiological study it should be the most constant book of reference, while to him who is specially engaged in physio- logical work it is an absolute necessity.—Journal of the American Medical Association,k\i.gVisi 29,1885. Dr. Foster's work upon physiology is so well- known as a text-book in this country, that it needs but little to be said in regard to it. There is scarcely a medical college in the United States where it is not in the hands of the students. The author, more than any other writer with whom we are acquainted, seems to understand what portions of the science are essential for students to know and what may be passed over by them as not important. From the beginning to the end, physiology is taught in a systematic manner. To this third American edition numerous additions, corrections and alterations have been made, so that in its present form the usefulness of the book POWEM, HENItT, M, B,, F.

The prominent character of this work is that of I to every one of our readers.— The American Jowr- judicious condensation, in which an able and sue- | nal of the Medical Sciences, October, 1884. cessful effort appears to have been made by its accomplished author to teach the greatest number of facts in the fewest possible words. The result is a specimen of concentrated intellectual pabu- lum seldom surpassed, which ought to be care- fully ingested and digested by every practitioner who desires to keep himself well informed upon this most progressive of the medical sciences. The volume is one which we cordially recommend This little work is deserving of the highest praise, and we can hardly conceive how the main facts of this science could have been more clearly or concisely stated. The price of the work is such as to placeit within the reach of all, while the ex- cellence of its text will certainly secure for it most favorable commendation —Cincinnati Lancet and Clinic, Feb. 16,1884.

This book supplies a want long felt by students of medicine and pharmacy, and is a concise but thorough treatise on the subject. The long expe- rience of the author as a teacher in schools of medicine and pharmacy is conspicuous in the perfect adaptation of the work to the special needs of the student of these branches.
