Each item includes besides a short notice on the author a detailed bibliographical description of the book under consideration as well as a critical survey of its illustrations, dealing with the objects reproduced, their size, technique of reproduction and the names of the painter, engraver or lithographer. 2. <A history of the art of medical illustration. By following the chronological arrangement of the book, the reader will be able to trace the development of illus- trative technique in medical works, the most characteristic specimens of which are selected and reproduced with a care that does full justice to the fine quality of the originals. The index of painters and designers, engravers and lithographers contains many names hitherto unknown in the history of art. 3. A valuable contribution to the history of medicine, throwing a new flood of light on one of its most important branches, viz., pathological anatomy, the material of which is brought together and arranged in a very clear way. The book will also furnish much fresh biographical information. 4, <A practical guide for the medical practitioner and the university lecturer. With the help of this book and especially by means of its detailed registers it is possible to review in a very short time the whole range of illustrative literature on nearly all kinds of diseases. The plates will prove of great value to lecturers in demonstrating their objects to a large audience. 5. A work of reference to the dealer in medical books, supplying him with much hitherto unobtainable information necessary for an exact collation and evalua- tion of illustrated medical works. There can be no doubt that the book under notice will establish itself as the standard work on the subject for many years to come. 204 GOMES DE BRITO.
