There is great need of just such a book in our ^Z^^^Zgf medlCine''-*- S- Ba^> °f of Pharmacy, L 1 ?-h? .obiect °f this useful book is a very laudable one, namely, to improve, if possible, the Latin used by Dotn pnysicians and druggists, chiefiy in the prescribing of drugs. ■ While it is true that many of the profession una it unnecessary to remember the genitive endings of words used in medicine, because of the customary abbreviations in prescnbmg-wnting, there are others who frequently desire to write their directions to the druggist in .Latin, in order that the patient may not learn of facts about which it is often necessary for him to remain m ignorance. We hope that the book will prove a success, and by its general employment in both pnaimaceutical and medical schools, improve the knowledge of Latin in both professions.— The Medical Aezos, Philadelphia, January 10th, 1891. shn w\he pl.an, of tbe book is excellent, the field new, as it fills a long-felt want. All medical students siouid nave it, both the collegian, as it will give a practical turn to his knowledge of Latin, and the non- L gr auate, as it will give him a direct and useful acquaintance with that language. The country doctor who 1^ ,,a n • advantages of the younger men will find it a great help in overcoming this defect, and may peeaiiy acquire a familiarity with this language that will surprise his classical confrere.—Southern Col Practitioner, December, 1890.$
