The best, completest, fullest monograph on this subject in our language.—British American Journal. -Pacific Med. Indispensable in a medical library. and Surg. Journal. We have no doubt that it will supersede in America every other treatise on Venereal.—San Francisco Med. Press, Oct. 1S6-1. A perfect compilation of all that is worth knowing on venereal diseases in general. It fills up a gap which has long been felt in English medical literature. —Brit, and Foreign Med.-Chirurg. Review, Jan., '65. We have not met with a.ny which so highly merits onr approval and praise as the second edition of Dr. Bumstead's work.—Glasgow Med. Journal, Oct. 1S64. We know of no treatise in any language which is its equal in point of completeness and practical sim- plicity.— Boston Medical and Surgical Journal, Jan. 30, 1S64. 'DUMSTEAD [FREEMAN J.), ■*-' Professor of Venereal Diseases in the d flULLERIER [A.), and vy Surgeon to the Hopital du Midi. J-J Professor of Venereal Diseases in the College of Physicians and Surgeons, N. Y. AN ATLAS OP VENEREAL DISEASES. Translated and Edited by Freeman J. Bumstead. In one large imperial 4to. volume of 328 pages, double-columns, with 26 plates, containing about 150 figures, beautifully colored, many of them the size of life; strongly bound in extra cloth, §17 00 ; also, in five parts, stout wrappers for mailing, at $3 per part. {Just Ready.) Anticipating a very large sale for this work, it is offered at the very low price of Three Dol- lars a Part, thus placing it within the reach of all who are interested in this department of prac- tice. Gentlemen desiring early impressions of the plates would do weU to order it without delay. A specimen of the plates and text sent free by mail, on receipt of 25 cents. We wish for once that our province was not restrict- ed to methods of treatment, that we might say some- thing of the exquisite colored plates in this volume. —London Practitioner, May, 1S69. As a whole, jt teaches all that can be taught by means of plates and print.—London Lancet, March 13, 1S69. Superior to anything of the kind ever before issued on this continent.—Canada. 3Ied. Journal, March, '69. The practitioner who desires to understand this branch of medicine thoroughly should obtain this, the most complete and best work ever published.— Dominion Med. Journal, May, 1S69. This is a work of master hands on both sides. M. Cullerier is scarcely second to, we think we may truly say is a peer of the illustrious and venerable Ricord, while in this country we do not hesitate to say that Dr. Bumstead, as au authority, is without a rival. Assuring our readers that these illustrations tell the whole history of venereal disease, from its inception to its end, we do not know a single medical work, which for its kind is more necessary for them to have. —California Med. Gazette, March, 1869. The most splendidly illustrated work in the lan- guage, and in our opinion far more useful than the French original.—Am. Journ. Med. Sciences, Jan.'69. The fifth and concluding number of this magnificent work has reached us, and we have no hesitation in saying that its illustrations surpass those of previous numbers.—Boston Med. and Surg. Journal, Jan. 14, 1869. Other writers besides M. Cullerier have given us a good account of the diseases of which he treats, but no one has furnished us with such a complete series of illustrations of the venereal diseases. There is, however, an additional interest and value ].iossessed by the volume before us ; for it is an American reprint and translation of M. Cnlleiier's work, with inci- dental remarks by one of the most eminent American syphilographers, Mr. Bumstead. The letter-press is chiefly Si. Cullerier'.s, but every here and there a few lines or sentences are introduced by Mr. Bumstead ; and, as M. Cullerier is a unicist, while Mr. Bumstead is a dualist, this method of treating the subject adds very much to its interest. By this means a liveliness is imparted to the volume which many other treatises sorely lack. It is like reading the report of a conver- sation or debate ; for Mr. Bumstead often finds occa- sion to question Bl.CuUerier's statements or inferences, and this he does in a short and forcible way which helps to keep up the attention, and to make the book a very readable one.—Brit, and For. Medico-Chir. Review, July, 1869. ITILL [BERKELEY), Surgeon to the Lock Hospital, London. ON SYPHILIS AND LOCAL CONTAGIOUS DISORDERS one handsome octavo volume ; extra cloth, $3 25. {Just Issued.) Bringing, as it does, the entire literature of the dis- ease down to the present day, and giving with great ability the results of modern research, it is in every respect a most desirable work, and one which should find a place in the library of every surgeon.—Cali- fornia. Med. Gazette, June, 1869. Considering the scope of the book and the careful attention to the manifold aspects and details of its subject, it is wonderfully concise. AU these qualities render it an especially valuable book to the beginner, to whom we would most earnestly recomnifind its study; while it is no less useful to the practitioner.— St. Louis Med. and Surg. Journal, May, 1869. In The author, from a vast amount of material, with all of which he was perfectly familiar, has under- taken to construct a new book, and has really suc- ceeded in producing a capital volume upon this subject.—Nashville Med. and Surg. Journal, May, 1869. The most convenient and ready book of reference we have met with.—N. Y. Med. Record, May 1, 1869. Most admirably arranged for both student and prac- titioner, no other work on the subject equals it; it is more simple, more easily studied.—Buffalo Med. and Surg. Journal, March, 1869.
