    MEDICAL GYNECOLOGY By HOWARD A. KELLY, A.B., M.D. Fellow of the American Gynecological Society ; Professor of Gynecological Surgery in the Johns Hopkins University, and Gynecologist to the Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, etc. Author of ‘Operative Gynecology’ Illustrated. Royal 8vo. Cloth. 25s. net This new Medical Gynecology, in conjunction with the author’s work on Operative Gynecology, represents the individual know- ledge the author has obtained and collected through his long experience and connection with the subject of Gynecology at Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore. The trend of Gynecology for the past quarter of a century has been to place all gynecological cases more and more exclusively in the hands of the surgeon. It now seems a fitting time to turn to the general practitioner and ask him to re-assume the burden of a large number of these cases, so far at least as concerns the important principles of Prophylaxis, Hygiene, and Diagnosis, also the treatment of those cases which do not call for aggressive surgery, and cases in that most important period when they have left the hands of the surgeon. Certain minor operative procedures, such as the treatment of displacement of the uterus, dilation and curettage, have been dwelt upon here for the purpose of aiding those practitioners who are constantly thrown upon their own resources. OPERATIVE GYNECOLOGY By HOWARD A. KELLY, A.B., M.D. Second Edition. Revised and Enlarged In 2 volumes. Illustrated. Royal 8vo. Cloth. £3, 3s. net ‘The volumes are of the highest merit, will long remain the standard work upon the subject of which they treat, and should be in the hands of all gynecologists and surgeons performing pelvic operations. ’—Lancet.
