    BY THE SAME AUTHOR. ON AN EPIDEMIC SKIN DISEASE Which occurred in London during the Summer and Autnmn of 1891. H. K. Lewis, London, 1893. Price 3s. Bd. It is a matter of congratulation that it fell to the lot of Dr. Savill to obsenre these cases The monograph in which the history of the epidemic has been recorded bears ample evidence of the painstaking industry and precision with which the disease was studied.—British Medical Journal. A valuable record of this unprecedented outbreak.—The Lancet. He has at least, put on record in a thoroughly scientific manner much which wiU prove of the utmost value the illustrations, whether coloui-ed or in phototype, are such as to render the recognition an easy matter. We would counsel all medical officers of health, and every parochial medical officer m charge of a workhouse to purchase a copy, but it will be found both interesting and valuable to every well-informed medical practitioner.—Edinburgh Med. Journ. TO APPEAR SHORTLY. CLINICAL HANDBOOK ON THE DIAGNOSIS, PROGNOSIS, AND TREATMENT OP DISEASES OF THE NERVOUS SYSTEM. This work is designed to meet the demand for a concise book of reference for students in the wards and i)ractitioners in their daily work. The subject is dealt with from a piu-ely clinical standpoint. By taking the cardinal symptom of which a patient complains, and referring to the page where the diseases which might give rise to that symptom are described and dift'eron- tiated, the reader will be enabled to identify the disease from which the patient is suffering, and ascertain the appropriate prognosis and treatment. It is, as it were, an Index to Diseases of the Nervous System, arranged on a clinical basis. It includt^s an outline of Diseases ot tliu Mind, the Eye, the Ear, the Nose and Throat, and Sexual Disorders. An endeavour is made to indicate the relative frequency and importance of the different diseases by a difference in type and spacing; and numerous tables have been introduced to facilitate readiness of reference.
