Abstract
THIS, the third volume of the work, fully justifies the high opinion we expressed of its predecessors. In point of excellence of treatment, lucidity of description, genera arrangement of the subject, fullness of detail, and abundance of excellent illustrations, it gives to the work as a whole a completeness and thoroughness which, we believe, have not been attained by any previous work, in English or foreign tongues. The pathology of the urinary organs is described in Section IX. (Chapters lxiv.–lxxv.) Section X. (Chapters lxxvi.–xc.) treats of the diseases o: the respiratory organs, the thyroid and thymus glands Sections XI. and XII. (Chapters xci.–ciii.) of the patholog) of the central and peripheral nervous system. If amongsi all that is good in the volume we had to choose what is best, we should name the chapters on the pathology of the lung and central nervous system. The classification and the detailed description of the morbid changes of these two organs are most excellent in every respect.
