Medical Jurisprudence

Medical Jurisprudence, Insanity, and Toxicology. By HENRY C. CHAPMAN, M.D., Professor of Institutes of Medicine and Medical Jurisprudence in Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia. 12m0 of 329 pages,

fully illustrated. Cloth, $1.75 net.

THIRD ENLARGED EDITION

REVISED AND RESET

This work is based on the author's practical experience as Coroner's Physician of the City of Philadelphia for a period of six years. Dr. Chapman's book, therefore, is of unusual value. This third edition, enlarged by the addition of new matter to the extent of seventy-five pages, has been entirely reset, and every page has undergone a careful scrutiny, so as to include the very latest advances in this important branch of medical science. Much of the matter has been rearranged, the text has been more fully illuminated by additional references to cases, and a number of new figures and tables have been added.

"It is an excellent manual, in which an accurate epitome is given of the existing knowledge on the subject."― Journal of the American Medical Association.

JUST READY

The object of the present work is to give to the medical and legal professions a comprehensive survey of forensic medicine and toxicology in moderate compass. An interesting and important chapter is that on "The Destruction and Attempted Destruction of the Human Body by Fire and Chemicals." A chapter not usually found in works on legal medicine is that on "The Medicolegal Relations of the X-Rays." This section will be found of unusual importance. The responsibility of pharmacists in the compounding of prescriptions, in the selling of poisons, in substituting drugs other than those prescribed, etc., furnishes a chapter of the greatest interest.
