![rPHOMAS {T.GAILLARD),M.D., -*■ Professor of Obstetrics, &c.. in the College of Physicians and Surgeons, N^. T., Ac A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON THE DISEASES OF WOMEN. Fifth Edition, thoroughly revised and rewritten. In one large and handsome octavo volume of over 800 page.!, with 266 illustrations. Cloth, $6; leather, $6; very handsome half Russia, raised bands, $6 50. (Just Ready.) The author has taken advantage of the opportunity afforded by the call for a new edition of this work to render it worthy a continuance of the very remarkable favor with which it has been received. Every portion of the work has been carefully revised, very much of it has been rewritten, and additions and alterations introduced wherever the advance of .«cience and the increased experience of the author have shown them desirable. At the same time special care has been exercised to avoid undue increase in the size of the volume. To accommodate the numerous additions a more condensed but V' ry clear letter has been used, notwithstanding which, the number of pages has been increased by more than fifty. The series of illustrations has been extensively changed ; many which seemed to be superfluous have been omitted, and a large number of new and superior drawings have been inserted. In its improved form, there- fore, it is hoped that the volume will maintain the character it has acquired of a standard authority on every detail of its important subject. An exatniDation of the work will satisfy that it i.s one of great merit. It is not a mere compilation from other works, but is the fruit of the ripe thought, sound judgment, and critical observalions of a le rned, scientific man. It is a treasury of knowledge of the department of medicine to which it is devoted In its present revised state it cer- tainly hold~ a foremost position as a gvnsecological work, and will continue to be regarded as a stan- dard authority—Cincinnati Med. News, Deo. 1880. This work needs no introduction to any of the civilized nations of the world. The edition before us adds to the strong h of former volumes. With the wisd'im of a master teacher he here gives the results that, in his judgment, are most trustworthy at the pre.sent time. In its own place it has no rival because the author is the best teacher on this subject to the masses of the profession As hitherto this work will be the text-book on dlFeases nf wo- men We only wish that in other branches of medi- cine as capable teachers could be found to write our text-books.—Detroit Lancet, Jan, 1881. Since its firht appearance, twelve years ago, until the present day, it has held a position of high re- gard, and is generally conceded to be one of the most practi al and trustworthy volumes yef pre sented to the physician and student in the depart- ment of gynecology. The woik embodies not only its author's large experience, but reflects his care- ful study among other authorities in his branch, both at home and abroad Dr. Thomas is an able and conscientiouB teacher. His wri'ings convey his me-iningiu the same practical and instructive manner. The last edition of this work is fresh from his ]:ea, wiih decided churges and iranrovements over former edii ions. His book presents generally accepted facts, and a^ a guide to the stud em is mote useful and reliable ihan any work in the language on diseases of w^imen. This last edition will add new laurels to those already won. — Md. Med. Journ., Nov. 15, 1880. It has been enlarged and carefully revised. The author has brought it fully ahreist with the times, and as the wave of gynsecological progression has been widespread and rapid during the twelve years that have elapsed since tbeissue of the first edition, one can conceive of the great improvement this edi- tion must be upon the earlier. It is a condensed en- cyclopiedia ■)f gynsecjlogical medi ine. The style of arrangement, the mauerly minner in which eacli subject is treated, and the honest convictions de- rived from pmbably the l-iruiest clinical experience in that specialty f any in this country, all serve to commend it in the highest terms to the practitioner. —Nashville Journ. of Med. and Surg., Jan. 1881.

(Jtist Issued.) country, is shown by the second edition following so soon upon the first.—Am. Practitioner, Nov. 1878. Dr. Barnes's work is one of a practical character, largely illustrated from cases in his own experience, bat by no means confined to such, as will be learned from the fact that he quotes from no less than 628 medical authors in numerous countries. Coming from snnh an author, it is not necessarv to say that the work is a valuable one, and should be largely consulted by the profession.—Am. St'pp Obstetrical Journ. Gt. Britain and Ireland, Oct. 1878. No other gynsecological work holds a higher posi- tion, having become an authority everywhere in diseases of women. The work has beea brought fully abreast of present knowledge. Every practi- tioner of medicine should have it upon the shelves of his library, and the student will find it a superior text-book.—Cincinnati Med. News, Oct. 1878. Dr Barnes stands at the head of his profession in the old country, and it requires but scant scrutiny oi his hook to show that it has been sketched by a master It is plain, practical common sense ; shows very deep research without being pedantic ; is emi- nently calculated to inspire enthusiasm without in- culcating ranhness; points out the dangers to be avoided as well as the success to be achieved in the various operations connected with this branch of medicine; and will do much to smooth the rugged path of the young gynjecol,>gist and relieve the per- plexity of the man of mature years. — Canadian Journ. of Med. Science, Nov. 1878. We pitv the doctor who, having any consider- able practice in diseases of women, has no copy of Barnes for daily consultation and instruction. It is at once a book of great learning, research, and individual experience, and at the same time emi- nently practical.
