BOOK REVIEWS, NOTICES, ETC

In compliance with the expressed wish of some of our readers, we shall give, from time to time, a short list of the most prominent and interesting books published, pertaining to medicine; also note a few of the more interesting essays published in the journals. We can give no more space than suffices to mention subject and author; hence, will attempt no review of their subject-matter. This is done to keep our readers acquainted, without trouble to themselves, with the current medical literature, and so facilitate their purchasing such works as they may desire.

We would respectfully request all medical publishing houses to keep us informed, from time to time, as to the new books they have, either “in press or just out.”
