Medical Dictionary, Quiz Manuals. THE STUDENTS' 3 DICTIONARY OF MEDICINE AND THE ALLIED SCIENCES, COMPRISING THE PRONUNCIATION, DERIVATION AND FULL EXPLANATION OF MEDICAL TERMS; TOGETHER WITH MUCH COLLATERAL DESCRIPTIVE MATTER, NUMEROUS TABLES, ETC. By ALEXANDER DUANE, M. D., Assistant Surgeon to the New York Ophthalmic and Aural Institute; Reviser of Medical Terms for Webster's International Dictionary. In one square octavo volume of 658 pages. Cloth, $4.25; half leather, $4.50; full sheep, $5.00. Just ready. Dr. Duane has spared no time, pains or expense | in his endeavor to bring before the profession, and especially the students of medicine, a book embodying completeness and explicitness. The Vocabulary is abundant and its fulness is paral leled by the explanation accorded each word. It also contains extensive tables. Each word is fol. lowed by its correct pronunciation, a new feature in works of this kind, given by means of a simple and obvious phonetic spelling. Derivation, the greatest aid to memory, is fully treated of, and for the convenience of those who do not understand Greek, the English letters are substituted for those of the Greek in giving the roots of the words derived from that language. The author's experience as a lexicographer is fully attested by his position as Reviser of Medical Terms for Web ster's International Dictionary. We predict that this will become a standard and favorite work of its class-Medier Fortnightly, March, 1894. From A. L. LOOMIS, M.

D., late Professor of Institutes of Medicine in the Jefferson Medical College of Phila delphia. New (21st) edition, thoroughly revised and greatly enlarged. With the Pronunciation, Accentuation and Derivation of the Terms, by RICHARD J. DUNGLISON, A. M., M. D. In one very large and handsome royal octavo volume of 1191 pages. Cloth, $7.00; leather, raised bands, $8.00. Τ HIS great medical dictionary, which has been for more than two generations the standard of the English speaking race, is now issued in a thoroughly revised and greatly enlarged and improved edition. The new words and phrases aggregate by actual count over 44,000. Space has been gained by the excision of everything obsolete, and the page has been much enlarged, so that though the new edition contains far more matter than its predecessor, the whole is accommodated within a volume convenient for the hand. The revision has not only covered every word, but it has resulted in a number of important new features designed to confer on the work the utmost usefulness, and to make it answer the most advanced demands of the times. Pronunciation has been introduced throughout by means of a simple and obvious system of phonetic spelling. At a glance the proper sound of a word is clearly indicated, and thus a most important desideratum is supplied. Derivation affords the utmost aid in recollecting the meanings of words, and gives the power of analyzing and understanding those which are unfamiliar. It is indicated in the simplest manner. Greek words are spelled with English letters, and thus placed at the command of those unfamiliar with the Greek alphabet. Definitions, the essence of a dictionary, are clear and full, a characteristic in which this work has always been preeminent. In this edition much explanatory and encyclopedic matter has been added, especially upon subjects of practical importance. Thus under the various diseases will be found their symptoms, treatment, etc.; under drugs their doses and effects, etc., etc. A vast amount of information has been clearly and conveniently condensed into tables in the alphabet. lish-speaking people in matters of medical terminology. Pronunciation is for the first time introduced in the work and is indicated by the phonetic system. The definitions are unusually clear. In brief the book is wholly satisfactory.-University Medical Magazine, March, 1894. In a word, Dunglison's Medical Dictionary, in its remodelled and enlarged shape, is equal to all that the student and practitioner can expect from such a work. The new "Dunglison" is new indeed. The vast amount of new matter and the thoroughness with which the work has been brought down to date cannot fail to strike even the east observant reader. The immense advances made in all branches of medical science here find representation. A prominent and very useful feature of the old book is retained and amplified in this-we mean the tables, which recur with great frequency and represent a vast amount of condensed information. In respect to accuracy the book quite equals and usually surpasses any of its contemporaries that we are acquainted with. The new "Dunglison" has been brought down to date, so as to represent adequately the latest advances in medical science.-The American Journal of the Medical Siences, January, 1894. It has been the standard of reference for medical scholars for over a half-century. The twenty-first edition comes to us thoroughly revised and greatly enlarged, with new features treating of pronunciation, accentuation and deri vation of terms. Covering the entire field of medicine, surgery and the collateral sciences, Its range of usefulness can scarcely be measured. Perhaps the most valuable feature in the present work is the addition of a vast amount of practical matter. The type is commendably clear. We Dunglison's Dictionary needs no introduction to predict for the book another term of usefulness. the medical profession; for nearly two generations-Medical Record, February 24, 1894. it has been recognized as a standard among Eng The National Medical Dictionary, Including English, French, German, Italian and Latin Technical Terms used in Medicine and the Collateral Sciences, and a Series of Tables of Useful Data.

It presents to the English reader a thoroughly scientific mode of acquiring a rich vocabulary and offers an accurate and ready means of reference in consult ing works in any of the three modern continental languages which are richest in medical literature. Apart from the boundless stores of information which may be gained by the study of a good dictionary, one is enabled by the work under notice to read intelligently any technical treatise in any of the four chief modern languages.

Anatomy, Descriptive and Surgical, BY HENRY GRAY, F. R. S., LECTURER ON ANATOMY AT ST. GEORGE'S HOSPITAL, LONDON. Surgeon to and Lecturer on Anatomy at St. George's Hospital, London, Examiner in Anatomy, A new American from the thirteenth enlarged and improved London edition. In one S' INCE 1857 Gray's Anatomy has been the standard work used by students of medicine and practitioners in all English-speaking races. So preeminent has it been among the many works on the subject that thirteen editions have been required to meet the demand. This opportunity for frequent revisions has been fully utilized and the work has thus been subjected to the careful scrutiny of many of the most distinguished anatomists of a generation, whereby a degree of completeness and accuracy has been secured which is not attainable in any other way. In no former revision has so much care been exercised as in the present to provide for the student all the assistance that a text-book can furnish. The engravings have always formed a distinguishing feature of this work, and in the present edition the series has been enriched and rendered complete by the addition of many new ones. The large scale on which the illustrations are drawn and the clearness of the execution render them of unequalled value in affording a grasp of the complex details of the subject. As heretofore the name of each part is printed upon it, thus conveying to the eye at once the position, extent and relations of each organ, vessel, muscle, bone or nerve with a clearness impossible when figures or lines of reference are employed. Distinctive colors have been utilized to give additional prominence to the attachments of muscles, the veins, arteries and nerves. For the sake of those who prefer not to pay the slight increase in cost necessitated by the use of colors, the volume is published also in black alone. The illustrations thus constitute a complete and splendid series, which will greatly assist the student in forming a clear idea of Anatomy, and will also serve to refresh the memory of those who may find in the exigencies of practice the necessity of recalling the details of the dissecting room. Combining as it does a complete Atlas of Anatomy with a thorough treatise on systematic, descriptive and applied Anatomy, the work covers a more extended range of subjects than is customary in the ordinary text-books. It not only answers every need of the student in laying the groundwork of a thorough medical education, but owing to its application of anatomical details to the practice of medicine and surgery, it also furnishes an admirable work of reference for the active practitioner. We always had a kindly regard for the illustrations in Gray, where each organ, tissue, artery, and nerve bear their respective names, and in this edition color has been worked to advantage in bringing out the relationship of vessel and nerve. Oflate years, many works on anatomy have been introduced to the profession, but as a reference book for the practical everyday physician, and as a text-book for the student, we think it will be difficult to supplant Gray.-Buffalo Med, and Surg. Jour., Jan., 1894. No book deals with the complex subject so systematically, or presents the material in a way better fitted for the student to memorize.-Internotional Medical Magazine, Dec. 1893 It embraces the whole of human anatomy, and it particularly dwells on the practical or applied part of the subject, so that it forms a most useful, intelligible and practical treatise for the student and general practitioner.-Dublin Journal of Medical Science, December, 1893. There has not been a medical student in Englishspeaking countries who has not incurred a profound obligation to the author of the best descriptive text-book on anatomy. He who builds his medical knowledge on Gray's Anatomy need have no fear for the security of the foundation. Many good text-books on anatomy have been sent forth since "Gray" first appeared on the field; but the unquestioned excellence of the book has proven to be a source of perennial prosperity. The ability of its editors and the enterprise of its publishers have made the numerous editions reflect accurately the status of contemporaneous anatomical science. The last edition contains those additions which progress has made necessary since the publication of its predecessor-New Orleans Medical and Surgical Journal, Jan. 1894. Few treatises can claim such a record of endurance of usefulness. To say that it still maintains its reputation is to give it the highest compliment Gray's has been the unvarying standard for within the range of the critic's privilege. It has anatomical study by the vast majority of English-grown and strengthened with the advancements speaking medical students for so long that it and requirements of the modern knowledge of would seem an anomaly to see a student acquire anatomy, enlarging its scope for newer adaptasuch knowledge from some other source.-Medi-, tions in surgery and physiology.-Medical Record, cal Fortnightly, February, 1894.

Limited edition, for sale by subscription only. Address the Publishers. We have before us the fourth and last part of the latest and best work on human monstrosities. This completes one of the masterpieces of American medical literature. Typographically and from an artistic standpoint, the work is unexceptionable. In this last ard final volume is presented the most complete bibliography of teratological literature extant. No library will be complete without this magnificent work.-Journal of the American Medical Asso, May 6, 1893. Altogether, Human Monstrosities is a satisfactory production. It will take its place as a standard work on teratology in medical libraries, and it must always retain the honor of being the first of its kind written in the English language.-The British Medical Journal, May 27, 1893. This work promises to be one for which a place must be found in the library of every anatomist, pathologist, obstetrician and teratologist. It is the joint production of an obstetrician, and an embry ologist, and histologist, and this fact makes it certain that both the obstetric and anatomical sides of the subject will be fully represented and described. The book promises to be one of the greatest value to the English-speaking medical world.-Edinburgh Medical Journal, April, 1892. Allen's System of Human Anatomy.

See Students' Series of Manuals, page 30. Messrs.Clarke and Lockwood have written a book that can hardly be rivalled as a practical aid to the dissector. Their purpose, which is "how to describe the best way to display the anatomical structure," has been fully attained. They excel in a lucidity of demonstration and graphic terseness of expression, which only a long training and intimate association with students could have given.

No man in America was better fitted than Dr. Draper for the task he undertook and he has provided the student and practitioner of medicine with a volume at once readable and thorough. Even to the student who has some knowledge of physics this book is useful, as it shows him its applications to the profession that he has chosen. Dr. Draper, as an old teacher, knew well the diffi culties to be encountered in bringing his subject within the grasp of the average student, and that he has succeeded so well proves once more that the man to write for and examine students is the one who has taught and is teaching them.
