Edited, with additions, by S. MACCUEN SMITH, M. D., Clinical Professor of Otology, Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia. With 244 colored figures on 39 lithographic plates, 99 text-illustrations, and 292 pages of text. Cloth, $3.00 net. INCLUDING ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY A This excellent volume is the first attempt to supply in English an illustrated clinical handbook to act as a worthy substitute for personal instruction in a specialized clinic. This work is both didactic and clinical in its teaching, the latter aspect being especially adapted to the student's wants. special feature is the very complete exposition of the minute anatomy of the ear, a working knowledge of which is so essential to an intelligent conception of the science of otology. The illustrations are beautifully executed in colors, and illuminate the text in a singularly lucid manner, portraying pathologic changes with such striking exactness that the student should receive a deeper and more lasting impression than the most elaborate description could produce. Further, the association of Professor Politzer in the preparation of the work, and the use of so many valuable specimens from his notably rich collection especially enhance the value of the work. The text contains everything of importance in the elementary study of otology. PERSONAL AND PRESS OPINIONS Clarence J. Blake, M. D., Professor of Otology, Harvard University Medical School, Boston. "The most complete work of its kind as yet published, and one commending itself to both the student and teacher in the character and scope of its illustrations." Boston Medical and Surgical Journal "Contains what is probably the best collection of colored plates of the ear, both of normal and pathological conditions, of any hand-book published in the English language. In addition to this the text is presented in an unusually clear and direct manner." They are offered at a price heretofore unapproached in cheapness Lehmann, Neumann, and Weaver's Bacteriology Atlas and Epitome of Bacteriology: INCLUDING A TEXTBOOK OF SPECIAL BACTERIOLOGIC DIAGNOSIS. BY PROF. DR. K. B. LEHMANN and DR. R. O. NEUMANN, of Würzburg. From the Second Revised and Enlarged German Edition. Edited, with additions, by G. H. WEAVER, M. D., Assistant Professor of Pathology and Bacteriology, Rush Medical College, Chicago. In two parts. Part I.-632 colored figures on 69 lithographic plates. Part II.-511 pages of text, illustrated. Cloth, $2.50 net. Per part: INCLUDING SPECIAL BACTERIOLOGIC DIAGNOSIS This work furnishes a survey of the properties of bacteria, together with the causes of disease, disposition, and immunity, reference being constantly made to an appendix of bacteriologic technic. The special part gives a complete description of the important varieties, the less important ones being mentioned when worthy of notice. The lithographic plates, as in all this series, are accurate representations of the conditions as actually seen, and this collection, if anything, is more handsome than any of its predecessors. As an aid in original investigation the work is invaluable. OPINIONS OF THE MEDICAL PRESS American Journal of the Medical Sciences "Practically all the important organisms are represented, and in such a variety of forms and cultures that any other atlas would rarely be needed in the ordinary hospital laboratory." The Lancet, London "We have found the work a more trustworthy guide for the recognition of unfamiliar species than any with which we are acquainted." There have been 82,000 copies imported since publication Zuckerkandl and DaCosta's Operative Surgery Second Edition, Revised and Greatly Enlarged Atlas and Epitome of Operative Surgery. By DR. O. ZUCKERKANDL, of Vienna. Edited, with additions, by J. CHALMERS DACOSTA, M. D., Professor of the Principles of Surgery and Clinical Surgery, Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia. With 40 colored plates, 278 text-cuts, and 410 pages of text. Cloth, $3.50 net. ADOPTED BY THE U. Ș. ARMY In this new edition the work has been brought precisely down to date. The revision has not been casual, but thorough and exhaustive, the entire text having been subjected to a careful scrutiny, and many improvements and additions made. A number of chapters have been practically rewritten, and of the newer operations, all those of special value have been described. The number of illustrations has also been materially increased. Sixteen valuable lithographic plates in colors and sixty-one text-figures have been added, thus greatly enhancing the value of the work. There is no doubt that the volume in its new edition will still maintain its leading position as a substitute for clinical instruction. OPINIONS OF THE MEDICAL PRESS Philadelphia Medical Journal "The names of Zuckerkandl and DaCosta, the fact that the book has been translated into 13 different languages, together with the knowledge that it is used in the United States Army and Navy, would be sufficient recommendation for most of us." Munchener Medicinische Wochenschrift "We know of no other work that combines such a wealth of beautiful illustrations with clearness and conciseness of language, that is so entirely abreast of the latest achievements, and so useful both for the beginner and for one who wishes to increase his knowledge of operative surgery."

A RARE COLLECTION OF BEAUTIFUL PLATES Per The colored lithographs of this volume are beautifully reproduced, and are extremely accurate representations of the microscopic changes produced by disease. The great value of these plates is that they represent in the exact colors the effect of the stains, which is of such great importance for the differentiation of tissue. The text portion of the book is admirable, and, while brief, it is entirely satisfactory in that the leading facts are stated, and so stated that the reader feels he has grasped the subject extensively. The work is modern and scientific, and altogether forms a concise and systematic view of pathologic knowledge. PERSONAL OPINIONS William H. Welch, M. D., Professor of Pathology, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore. "I consider Dürck's Atlas of Special Pathologic Histology,' edited by Hektoen, a very useful book for students and others. The plates are admirable.' Frank B. Mallory, M. D., Assistant Professor of Pathology, Harvard University Medical School, Boston. "The information is presented in a very compact form; it is carefully arranged, briefly and clearly stated, and almost always represents our latest knowledge of the subject."

Not only is the student made acquainted with carefully prepared ophthalmoscopic drawings done into well-executed lithographs of the most important fundus changes, but, in many instances, plates of the microscopic lesions are added. It furnishes a manual of the greatest possible service. The Lancet, London "We recommend it as a work that should be in the ophthalmic wards or in the library of every hospital into which ophthalmic cases are received."

D., Professor of Ophthalmology, University of Pennsylvania. With 76 colored illustrations on 40 lithographic plates and 228 pages of text. Cloth, $3.00 net. This new work of the distinguished Zürich ophthalmologist is destined to become a valuable handbook in the library of every practising physician. The conditions attending diseases of the external eye have probably never been more clearly and comprehensively expounded than in the forelying work, in which the pictorial most happily supplements the verbal description. The Medical Record, New York "The work is excellently suited to the student of ophthalmology and to the practising physician. It cannot fail to attain a well-deserved popularity."
