Ce Journal forme une revue complete du mouvement litteraire tant en Angleterre que dans les pays d'outremer et sur le continent. . • . Une critique saine et impartiale domihe la livraison que nous avons sous les yeux.—Encyclogi-aphie des Sciences Medicales, tome iii. 2me Serie. Bruxelles, Mars, 1836. This Journal constitutes a complete review of the progress of medical literature, not merely in England, but on the continent and in distant countries. ... A sound and impartial criticism prevails throughout the Number which is now before us. There can be no doubt but that the distinguished editors will essentially contribute to extend the fruits of German industry and German learning in England.—Hannoversche Annalenfur die gesammte Heilkunde. Heft ii. April, 1836. The accession of The British and Foreign Medical Review to our list, it seems imperative on me to notice. The wide circulation of its first Numbers is a guarantee of the high esti- mation in which it is held; and every reader of this work must have felt satisfied of its being conducted with a strict reference to those gentlemanly and elevated feelings which should ever characterize a scientific journal: discarding the froth and scum of ephemeral publica- tions, it collects and intermixes the ingenious speculations of the day with the most solid practical materials, and exhibits a degree of erudition hitherto unknown among us.—Retro- spective Address, delivered at the Manchester Meeting of the Provincial Association, July 21, 1836, by J. G. Crosse, Esq. f.r.s. We not only welcome this new Journal, but warmly recommend it to our readers as a rich repertory of facts and opinions on medical subjects.—The Western (American) Journal of the Medical and Physical Sciences, September, 1836. The British and Foreign Medical Review is certainly the ablest periodical now published in England.—Journal of the Calcutta Medical and Physical Society. December, 1837. ^iTHE BRITISH AND FOREIGN MEDICAL n¥.YlWN is published Qiturterhi, jh-ice Six Shillings, i//JOHN CH URCHILL, 10, Piukces Street, SoHO; uf whom j/iay be had, the first Six Volumes, elegantly done up in Cbdii Boards, with gold Letters, at the same Price us the single Nuiubers. *»* No. XIII. will be published on the 1st of Jamiary, 1839.
