    DR. J. HENRY BENNET’S WORKS. I. 1 vol., 8vo, pp. 442. WINTER IN THE SOUTH OF EUROPE; OB, MENTONE, THE RIVIERA, CORSICA, SICILY, AND BIARRITZ, AS WINTER CLIMATES. Illustrated by Chromo-lithograph Maps and Frontispiece, Wood Engravings, &c. Third Edition, 1865. “ We must take leave of Dr. Henry Bennet with a cordial recommendation of his work. The volume I is very tastefully got up; it is illustrated by several well-executed chromo-lithograph maps, while the linteresting nature of its contents, the mingling of science with general information, render it equally Isuitable for the general reader or the physician.”—Edinburgh Medical Journal. II. Post 8vo, cloth, 5s. I NUTRITION IN HEALTH AND DISEASE. “ We have much pleasure in conscientiously recommending Dr. Bennet’s work as a most admirable Band agreeable addition to medical literature. Medical practitioners of all ages and all degrees of ■experience will derive both pleasure and instruction from a careful study of the contents of this most lanteresting volume,”—Lancet. III. 8vo, pp. 600, I A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON UTERINE DISEASES. Fourth Edition, 1862. I This Work has gone through four English editions and five American editions ; it has been twice translated into French, and once into German. Second Edition, 1848. “ This complete and perfect specimen of medical investigation, which combines those rare concomi- i tants in the literature of our profession—an almost new subject treated in a scientific yet agreeable II manner.”—Provincial Journal. “The fact of a second edition having been called for is sufficient proof of the estimation in which the | author is held, and confirms us in the favourable opinion we expressed of the former edition of this ] treatise. A vast deal of important matter has been added, so that, although nominally a second edition, | it is in reality a new work. It only remains for us to express our deep admiration for the talents of the H author, and our sense of obligation for the great benefit he has conferred on this department of practical | medicine.”—Dublin Quarterly Journal. “ We presume there are few medical men, whose practice embraces the diseases in question, who will I not possess themselves of the volume, which we have no hesitation in pronouncing to be the most ■ original, as well as the most complete upon the subject, that it has fallen to our lot to peruse.”— I Dublin Medical Press (1849). “ We are firmly of opinion that in proportion as a knowledge of uterine diseases becomes more I appreciated, this work will be proportionately established as a text-book in the profession.”— nittwcef (1850). Fourth Edition. “A most valuable contribution to medical science. It may be fairly said that Dr. Bennet’s writings 9 have given a more accurately determined impulse to the study and understanding of the diseases to | which females are liable than those of any other author of the present century.”—Lancet. “Through the influence of this work upon English practice, a large class of diseases, formerly j unrecognised and unrelieved, are now well known and easily cured.”—Medical Times and Gazette. IV. 1 8vo, cloth, 4s., pp. 100. lA REVIEW OP THE PRESENT STATE OP UTERINE PATHOLOGY. 1 “This essay is remarkable, not alone for excellent composition, admirable arrangement, and lucid 1 reasoning, but likewise for the calm, candid, and gentlemanlike manner in which the author has dealt I with his opponents. So far as we are concerned, we have no reason to gainsay any of the conclusions 1 arrived at by Dr. Bennet, deeming them as we do those of common seuse, and such as are, for the most I part, sanctioned by our own school of medicine.”—Dublin Quarterly Journal.
