BY THE SAME AUTHOR

PHARMACOLOGY AND THERAPEUTICS

In this companion work to Materia Medica and Pharmacy, the classification is one based on the particular parts upon which the various drugs or other agents and preparations in use, both official and unofficial, and very elaborate accounts of their physiological action and therapeutics are given. In these descriptions the author has endeavored to present the latest views of the highest authorities on these subjects at the same time expressing his own views very clearly -and to render the book as practically useful as possible by full details regarding treatment. The two works combined offer, it is believed, a very complete and up-to-date presentation of the whole subject of Materia Medica and Therapeutics, which will be found invaluable to both the practitioner and student.
