    authors and original research on his own collection ol cases. Further, they contain an enlightening and discreet judgment upon all the considerations relative to the origin and characteristics of Chorionepithelioma which can be based on the latest research into the biological behaviour of the fertilized ovum towards the uterus. This work settled the controversy as to the nature of Chorionepithelioma for a wide circle of English Men of Science and Medicine, and has had important and far-reaching influence. The second of the above-mentioned works enriched our knowledge of the early Stages of Development and Imbedding of the Human Ovum by the description of a most important and hitherto entirely unknown stage of the Human Ovum, which is the youngest yet discovered. The third reports a very rare case—an early Ovarian Pregnancy. The second and third are published together in a monograph which, from the point of view of the Signifi- cance and Function of the Trophoblast of the Human Ovum, is of the highest interest. Careful treatment of the objects described, accurate, strictly objective exposition of the discoveries, elucidated by illustrations of the highest order, and an exhaustive discussion of the literature of the subject distinguish this work in an eminent degree.
