An American text-book of the diseases of children .. . al text-book in the Englishlanguage. Asepsis and Antisepsis have receivedparticular attention. The text is brought wellup to date in such important branches as cere-bral, spinal, intestinal, and pelvic surgery, themost important and newest operations in thesedepartments being described and illustrated. The text of the entire book has been sub-mitted to all the authors for their mutual criti-cism and revision—an idea in book-makingthat is entirely new and original. The book asa whole, therefore, expresses on all the im-portant surgical topics of the day the consensusof opinion of the eminent surgeons who have joined in its preparation. One of the most attractive features of the book is its illustrations. Very manyof them are original and faithful reproductions of photographs taken directly frompatients or from specimens, and the modern improvements in the art of engravinghave enabled the publisher to produce illustrations which it is believed are superiorto those in any similar Specimen Illustration {largely reduced).
