The new edition of this work has just been issued after a careful revision. As diagnosis and treatment are of the greatest importance in considering diseases of women, particular attention has been devoted to these divisions. To this end, also, the work has been magnificently illuminated with 701 illustrations, for the most part original photographs and water-colors of actual clinical cases accumulated during the past fifteen years. The palliative treatment, as well as the radical operative, is fully described, enabling the general practitioner to treat many of his own patients without referring them to a specialist. The author's extensive experience renders this work of unusual value. * * * * * OPINIONS OF THE MEDICAL PRESS * * * * * #Medical Record, New York# "Its merits can be appreciated only by a careful perusal.... Nearly one hundred pages are devoted to technic, this chapter being in some respects superior to the descriptions in many text-books." #Boston Medical and Surgical Journal# "The author has given special attention to diagnosis and treatment throughout the book, and has produced a practical treatise which should be of the greatest value to the student, the general practitioner, and the specialist." #Medical News, New York# "Office treatment is given a due amount of consideration, so that the work will be as useful to the non-operator as to the specialist."

RECENTLY ISSUED Immediately on its publication this work took its place as the leading text-book on the subject. Both in this country and abroad it is recognized as the most satisfactorily written and clearly illustrated work on obstetrics in the language. The illustrations form one of the features of the book. They are numerous and the most of them are original. In this edition the book has been thoroughly revised. More attention has been given to the diseases of the genital organs associated with or following childbirth. Many of the old illustrations have been replaced by better ones, and there have been added a number entirely new. The work treats the subject from a clinical standpoint. * * * * * OPINIONS OF THE MEDICAL PRESS * * * * * #British Medical Journal#
