    > THEORY AND PRACTICE OF MEDICINE. New Edition. ] | - Bell and Stokes. LECTURES ON THE THEORY AND PRACTICE OF PHYSIC. By JOHN BELL, M.D., Association, and of the American Philosophical Society, etc., etc. ; and WM: STOKES, M.D., Lecturer of the Medical School, Park Street, Dublin; Physician to the Meath County Hospital, 'ete., etc. Fourth Edition, much enlarged and improved. 2 vols. 8vo. sheep. “This edition is greatly superior to those that preceded it, and have no hesitation in pronouncing the work a good one.’’—N. O. Med. and Surg. Jour. ‘Tt is unnecessary to speak of the character of this work, as it is one with which the medical profession of this country are sufficiently acquainted. The present is the fourth edition, which has been carefully revised, and enlarged by the addition of new and useful matter.”—Buffalo Med. Jour. ; “Dr. Bell has the gratification of knowing, from the rapid sale of the former edi- tion, that his great labor has been rightly appreciated by the profession, and that Bell and Stokes’s Lectures now rank among the standard works of the day.”—Med. Ex. “This improved edition is in two heavy octavos, containing 1760 closely-printed pages. Dr. Bell has added, with his own prolific pen, over fourteen hundred of them, which gives it a strong claim to the title of an American treatise.

Journ. “ We cordially recommend such of our readers as have not yet supplied them- selves to procure a copy of the present edition of these lectures, for we feel confident that they will never regret the time as lost, that they may devote to their perusal. The work is gotten up inthe usually neat and appropriate style of the enterprising publishers, and printed on good paper and clear type.” —N. Y. Journal of Medicine. ‘‘ Our favourable opinion has already been expressed, and we will only add, that our estimate of their excellence has been heightened by repeated examinations. For all the qualities which the student or practitioner can desire in a work for study and reference, these lectures may be safely recommended, .as comprising as much as could be brought within their limits of sound opinion and judicious practice.” — West. Jour. “With such additions and improvements, we consider the work one of the bestof its kind with which we are acquainted.”—Maryland Med. & Surg. Journ. ok ‘The work has now assumed the form of a quite complete system of medicine, equally valuable as a text-book to the student, and a book of reference to the practitioner.” “ We know of no book of the kind which we would more readily place in the hands of a student, or to which we would more readily refer the practitioner, for a hasty investigation of a subject.”—New Eng.
