CLARKE, M.D., Professor of Materia Medica in Harvard University; AND ROBERT AMORY, M.D., Annual Lecturer for 1870-71 on the Physiological Action of Drugs on Man and Animals in the Medical Department of Harvard University. The work consists of two monographs, supplementary to each other: Part I. treat- ing of the 1 herapeutical Actiou of the Bromide of Potassium and its Kindred Sa is, while Part II. has the Physiological Action of Bromide* of Potassium and Ammo- nium for its subject. NOTICES OF THE PRESS. [From the Doctor, London-, June, 1872.] Although much has been written on the subject, Drs. Clarke and Amory have succeeded in adding a really valuab.e little volume to practical Therapeutics. [Front the St. Louis Medical and Surgical Journal, August, 1872.] We regard it as a very valuable contribution to medical science, based on careful experiments and clinical observation. Every practitioner should read it. [From the American Journal of Insanity, July, 1872.] We commend the work to those engaged in treating diseases of the nervous sys- tem, and to the profession generally. [From the Richmond and Louisville Medical Journal, June, 1872.] This little work can be fully recommended: it costs little; it is concise, lucid, physiologically and therapeutically instructive; embodies much ii not all of the val- uable material scattered over the vast field of Journalism ; it is pleasantly written, well printed, and well bound. [From the A7uerican Journal of Pharmacy, June, 1872.] The medical literature in both essays has been extensively consulted, critically examined, and carefully compared with the experiments and observations of lltf authors; thus many interesting facts have been established which must prove vefl valuable to the medical practitioner. [From the Philadelphia Medical Times for June, 1872.1 Given a pure drug, the physiologist experiments with it upon man and animals, carefully noting its absorption, its elimination, its action while in the economy, and deducts certain conclusions, which he places in the hands of the therapeutist, who, not forgetting the changes produced by a pathological condition, is guided by them in the treatment of disease. Judging by this standard, we pronounce the book betore us to be a model. We thank Drs. Ciarke and Amorv for their contribution, and express a hope that the supply of such books may, like Tennyson's brook, ' go on for ever.' For Sale by all Booksellers.
