NEUROPATHY.--This is a new name, but a good one, being the title of a
work by Dr. F. Hollick, whose excellent Lectures on various subjects
will be remembered by many of our citizens. In this work is explained
the action of Galvanism, Electricity and Magnetism; Homœopathy
and Allopathy are contrasted in theory and practice; Mesmerism is
discussed, and other subjects "too numerous to mention," treated in a
manner at once novel and instructive. Dr. Hollick has also published
a work on "Anatomy and Physiology for Popular Use," illustrated with
a new dissected plate of the human organization, of most ingenious
construction. Of this work we shall have more to say anon. It is no
ordinary production.
_From the New York Sunday Times and Messenger, Jan. 10, 1847._
"OUTLINES OF ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY, FOR POPULAR USE," illustrated
by a new dissected plate of the human organization, and by separate
views. The work is designed either to convey a general knowledge of
these subjects in itself, or as a key for explaining larger and more
complete works. These Outlines should be in the hands of every body;
and Dr. Hollick, or any one else, is a public benefactor who furthers
the publication of such able, interesting, and truly important works.
_From the Pennsylvanian, (Philadelphia,) Jan. 26, 1847._
The following in regard to two works from the pen of Dr. Hollick, of
this city, we copy from the Washington Union, of the 20th instant:--
OUTLINES OF ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY FOR POPULAR USE. _By Frederick
Hollick, M. D., Lecturer on Anatomy, Physiology, &c._--We regard
this as an eminently useful publication. It gives in a form far
more condensed and intelligible than we have before seen, a very
comprehensive view of the human organization. The dissected plate of
the human anatomy, which forms an interesting feature of the work, is
to us at least a novelty. The explanations are drawn up with great
simplicity, and cannot be misunderstood by the general reader, while
they, with the illustrations, will often serve to render more clear and
precise the views of scientific and professional students.
_From the Sunday Mercury, New York._
