    VOGEL. A Practical Treatise on the Diseases of Children. Second American from the Fourth German Edition. Illustrated by Six Lithographic Plates. By ALFRED VOGEL, M. D., Professor of Clinical Medicine in the University of Dorpat, RumIä. TEAN8LATED AND EDITED BY H. RAPHAEL, M. D., Late Hous6 Surgeon to Bellevue Hospital; Physician to the Eastern Dispensary for the Dteeaaoe of Children, etc., etc 1 voL, 8vo. 611 pp. Cloth, $4.50. The work is well up to the present state of pathological knowledge; complete without unnecessary prolixity; its symptomatology accurate, evidently the result of careful observation of a competent and experi- enced clinical practitioner. The diagnosis and differential relations of diseases to each other are accurately described, and the therapeutics judicious and discriminating. All polypharmacy is discarded, and only the remedies which appeared useful to the author commended. It contains much that must gain for it the merited praise of all im- partial judges, and prove it to be an invaluable text-book for the stu- dent and practitioner, and a safe and useful gnide in the difficult but all- important department of Psediatrica. Rapidly passing to a fourth edition in Germany, and translated into three other languages, America now has the credit of presenting the first English ver- sion of a book which must take a prominent, if not the leading, position among works devoted to this class of disease.—N. Y. Medical Journal. The profession of this country are under many obligations to Dr. Raphael for bringing, as he has done, this truly valuable work to their notice.—Medical Record. The translator ha9 been more than ordinarily successful, and his labors have resulted in what, in every sense, is a valuable contribution to medic* science.—Psychological Journal. We do not know of a compact text-book on the diseases of children more complete, more comprehensive, more replete with practical remarks ami scientific facts, more in keeping with the development of modern medicine, and worthy of the attention of the profession, than that which has been the lubjed of our remarks.—Journal of Obstetric*.
