During a large part of the year a physician’s daily routine has to do with the conditions forming the subjects of this book. The primary disease and its sequela constitute a large percentage of the direct causes of death, not to speak of the enormous amount of incidental discomfort. For this reason a text-book presenting the rational and conservative methods of treatment recommended by the leading authorities in these respective departments can always be expected to have a place in the up-to-date library. A very large first edition was distributed in a little over a year, but with the revision there seems to be a likelihood that all previous records will be broken. New type, new illustrations, new complete chapters, and the addition of new material through- out, increasing the reading matter more than thirty (30) per cent., seems to have convinced all who have seen the new edition that it now stands without an equal as the ideal practical treatise on this branch of Medical Science. The subject of the “ EAR ” has long been classi- fied with the “ eye,” to which it bears a compara- tively slight relation. Expressions of gratitude are heard on every hand, that Dr. Bishop should have brought about a more practical and appropriate asso- ciation. Physicians will find the new arrangement very practical, and, considering the low price at which the book is sold, can well afford to have the latest and best in these three departments. The contents of the work are divided as follows:— PART I.—Diseases of the Ear. I. A General Consideration of Diseases of the Ear, Nose, and Throat Based on a Study of Twenty-one Thousand Cases. 11. Examination of Patients. 111. Compressed-Air Appliances and their Uses. IV. Methods of Producing and Using Compressed V. Diseases of the External Ear. VI. Diseases of the External Auditory Canal. VII to XII. Diseases ot the Middle Ear. XIII. Extension of Ear Diseases to tlie Cranial Cavity. XIV. Diseases of the Mastoid Process. XV. The Mastoid Operations. XVI to XVII.

XXVI. Related Diseases of the Eye and Nose. XXVII. Diseases of the Naso-Pharyngeal Cavity. PART lII.—XXYIII to XXXIV. Diseases of the Pharynx. XXXVI to XLIII. Diseases of the Larynx, PART IV.—Diseases of the Larynx, XLIV. Life-insurance Affected hy Diseases of the Ear, Nose, and Throat. An Appendix Comprising Remedies (a valuable list of Formulae), and a Case-record Book. A Thoroughly Complete and Convenient Index Concludes the Volume. The following reviews of the first edition may prove interesting:— To the student this volume will open up a new field with distinctness and accuracy, and will create a desire for study in these lines not heretofore experienced. The gen- eral practitioner will find it a faithful guide for all practi- cal purposes, and the specialist cannot fail to be thoroughly interested in its contents, as it is clear, concise, and rich in valuable suggestions for all.—Cleveland Medical Gazette Considering the extraordinary growth of the three specialties which are embodied in this volume, we con- gratulate the author upon having produced a most success- ful condensed view of the treatment of affections of the head.—Therapeutic Gazette. Such a book as the one before us shows how plain and attractive a subject may be made by an author who thoroughly understands it himself, and who has constant practical dealings with it. We do not know of any book on the specialty of the diseases of the ear, nose, and throat, and their accessory cavities, that more satisfactorily simpli- fies their diagnosis and treatment.—The Virginia Semi- Monthly. On the whole, the work is well adapted to accomplish the end the author had in view. It displays thought and care in preparation, and from its conservative tendencies should have a good influence upon the student as well as the physician who may add it to his library.—The Cana- dian Practitioner. The work before us is a most excellent one, magnifi- cently illustrated, and we can heartily recommend it as a good and reliable work on the subject with which it treats. —St. Louis Medical and Surgical Journal. This work deserves recommendation because of its up-to-date character and timely consideration of recently developed superior methods in the treatment of the dis- eases of the organs named.—Chicago Medical Times. We cannot say too much in praise of this work.— Australasian Medical Gazette. This is a most complete and illustrated monograph of 496 pages on the most important diseases of the ear, nose, and throat. The classification of the subject is happy and full. The author should receive the thanks of the pro- fession for his valuable contribution to special diseases of these important organs of the body. We recommend this book to be in the library of every physician, and in the hands of the students of both schools of medicine.—lndian Homeopathic Review (Calcutta, India). The new edition contains the following new chapters:— “Related Diseases bf the Eye and Nose,” and “ Eife-insurance Affected by Diseases of the Ear, Nose, and Throat.” The Subjects of “ Autoscopy ” and “ Pachydermia Earyngis ” are also fully con- sidered.
