“This volume, extending to 202 pages, with double columns, really contains the information which the title-page promises. It must have cost the author a great amount of trouble. It is a useful guide for all entrants to the profession, those especially who contemplate settling in foreign parts. It will do good also indirectly by letting those schools whose education is defective see what other schools are doing, and so be the means of stimulating them to aim at higher things. To be informed, for example, that medical teaching in Japan is already treading on the heels of some of our British schools cannot fail to do good.”—_Edinburgh Medical Journal._ “Dr. Hardwicke’s book will prove a valuable source of information to those who may desire to know the conditions upon which medical practice is or may be pursued in any or every country of the world, even to the remotest corners of the earth. The work has been compiled with great care, and must have required a vast amount of labour and perseverance on the part of its author.”—_Dublin Medical Journal._ “This work supplies a want long felt.... The chief value of Dr. Hardwicke’s volume, to students, is in the information he gives concerning the rules of practice in other countries, and the possibilities opened up of making a livelihood in them.... To teachers the manual will be invaluable; it will not only inform them of usages abroad, but enable them to glean many useful hints to aid the conduct of their own classes here. We commend the work as a most admirable _resumé_ of the state of medical education and practice in the world.”—_Students’ Journal._ “This opportune and very useful work ... gives exact and in some instances complete information of the requirements, curriculum, &c. for obtaining a diploma in every part of the world.... Some idea of the labour undertaken by the author may be gathered from the fact that the index contains nearly five hundred references.... The book will be a mine of reference for medical legislators, and will doubtless colour the provisions of the new Medical Act so clamorously demanded in England, and of the Act to which we are about to commit ourselves here.”—_Australian Medical Journal._ “A great deal of useful and convenient information is contained in this work in regard to the subjects of which it treats, and the information, as a rule, seems to be fairly accurate and reliable. The part devoted to the United States opens with the Philadelphia _Record’s_ full account of the bogus traffic in that city. The position assigned to this narrative is, perhaps, unnecessarily prominent, but we do not think the exposure of those vile practices can be too minute or widely circulated. This diploma traffic, whether carried on in Pennsylvania, New York, or Massachusetts, was and is a disgrace to us, and we may as well acknowledge it.”—_Boston Medical and Surgical Journal_, U. S.
