$JPLINT [AUSTIN], 31.D., -*■ Professor of the Principles and Practice of Medicine in Bellevue Hospital Med. College, N. Y. A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON THE DIAGNOSIS, PATHOLOGY, AND TREATMENT OP DISEASES OF THE HEART. Second revised and enlarged edition. In one octavo volume of 650 pages, with a plate, extra cloth, $4. (Noiv Ready.) The author has sedulously improved the opportunity afforded him of revising this work. Portions of it have been rewritten, and the whole brought up to a level with the most advanced condition of science. It must therefore continue to maintain its position as the standard treatise on the subject. Dr. Flint chose a difficult subject for his researches, i able for purposes of illustration, in connection with and has shown remarl^able powers of observation and reflection, as well as great industry, in his treat- ment of it. His book must be considered the fullest and clearest practical treatise on those subjects, and should be in the hands of all practitioners and stu- dents. It is a credit to American medical literature. —Amer. Joiirn. of the Med. Scie,nces, July, 1S60. We question the fact of any recent American author in our profession being more extensively known, or more deservedly esteemed in this country than Dr. Flint. We willingly acknowledge his success, more particularly in the volume on diseases of the heart, in making an extended personal clinical study avail- cases which have been reported by other trustworthy observers.—Brit, and For. Med.-Chirurg. Review. In regard to the merits of the work, we have no hesitation in pronouncing it full, accurate, aud judi- cious. Considering the present state of science, such a work was much needed. It should be in the hands of every practitioner.—Chicago Med. Journ. With more than pleasure do we hail the advent of this work, for it tills a wide gap on the list of text- books for our schools, and is, for the practitioner, the most valuable practical work of its kind.—N. 0.

Second and revised edition. In one handsome octiivo volume of 595 pages, extra cloth, $4 50. American medicine.—Atlanta Med. and Surg. Jour- nal, Feb. 1S67. The chapter on Phthisis is replete with interest; and his remarks on the diagnosis, especially in the early stages, are remarkable for their acumen and great practical value. Dr. Flint's style is clear and elegant, and the tone of freshness and originality which pervades his whole work lend an additional force to its thoroughly practical character, which cannot fail to obtain for it a place as a standard work on diseases of the respiratory system.—London Lancet, Jan. 19, 1S67. This is an admirable book. Excellent in detail and execution, nothing better could be desired by the practitioner. Dr. Flint enriches his subject with much solid and not a little original observation.— Ranking''s Abstract, Jan. 1S67. Premising this observation of the necessity of each student and practitioner making himself acquainted ■with auscultation and percussion, we may state our honest opinion that Dr. Flint's treatise is one of the most trustworthy guides which he can consult. The style is clear and distinct, and is also concise, being free from that tendency to over-refinement and unne- cessary minuteness which characterizes many works on the same subject.—Dublin Medical Press, Feb. 6, 1S67. In the invaluable work before us, we have a book of facts of nearly 600 pages, admirably arranged, clear, thorough, and lucid on all points, without pro- lixity; exhausting every point and topic touched ; a monument of patient and long-continued observation, which does credit to its author, and reflects honor on P A VY (F.

From the second London edition. In one handsome volume, small octavo, extra cloth, $2 00. {Just Ready.) The work before us is one which deserves a wide treatise, and suflSciently exhaustive for all practical circulation. We know of no better guide to the study purposes.—Leavenworth Med. Herald, July, 1869. of digestion and its disorders.—S^. Lout-i Med. and ^ very valuable work on the subject of which it Surg. Journal, July 10, 1S69. treats. Small, yet it is full of valuable information. A thoroughly good book, being a careful systematic —Cincinnati Med. Repertory, June, 1S69. (IHAMBERS (T. K.), M.

In one handsome octavo volume of 383 pages, extra cloth. $3 00. {Now Ready.) Author's Preface. Since publishing my first edition, I have inserted upw.ards of ten dozen cases, and have rear- ranged, indeed in part rewritten, the commentary upon them. A third edition is not yet required in England, so I send the MS. for publication to America. I have faith in the kindly feeling with which it will be received there. London, December, 1S69. We look upon this chapter as a most valuable guide to physicians, and warning to patients concerning transgressions against the established physiological conduct of life. The advice as to medical treatment proper, is also most serviceable. It should be read by every medical man in the country, and he shonld read his lessons to his patients from out its pages. We only regret that we have no room for a more thorough analysis of its contents.—N. Y. Medical Journal, March, 1S68. The work should be in the hands of every practis- ing physician.—Boston Med. and Surg. Journal, Nov. 21, 1867.
