    FLINT. The Physiology of Man. Designed to rep- resent the Existing State of Physiological Science as applied to the Functions of the Human Body. By AUSTIN FLINT, Jr., M. D., Professor of Physiology and Microscopy in the Bellevue Hospital Medical Collegn, and in the Long; Island College Hospital; Fellow of the New York Academy of Medicine; Microscopist to Bellevue Hospital. In Five Volumes. 8vo. Tinted Paper. Volume I.—The Blood / Circulation • Respiration. 8vo. 502 pp. Cloth, $4.50. If the remaining portions of this work are compiled with the same care and accuracy, the whole may vie with any of those that have of late years been pro- duced in our own or in foreign languages.—British and Foreign Medico-Ohirurgi- cal Review. As a book of general information it will be found useful to the practitioner, and, as a book of reference, invaluable in the hands of the anatomist and physi- ologist.—Dublin Quarterly Journal of Medical Science. The complete work will prove a valuable addition to our systematic treatises on human physiology.—The Lancet. To those who desire to get in one volume a concise and clear, and at the same time sufficiently full resume of ' the existing state of physiological science,' we can heartily recommend Dr. Flint's work. Moreover, as a work of typographi- cal art it deserves a prominent place upon our library-shelves. Messrs. Appleton & Co. deserve the thanks of the profession for the very handsome style in which they issue medical works. They give us hope of a time when it will be very generally believed by publishers that physicians' eyes are worth saving.—Medi- cal Gazette. Volume II. — Alimentation / Digestion / Absorption ; Lymph and Chyle. 8vo. 556 pp. Cloth, $4.50. The second instalment of this work fulfils all the expectations raised by the perusal of the first. . . . The author's explanations and deductions bear evidence of much careful reflection and study. ... The entire work is one of rare interest. The author's style is as clear and concise as his method is studious, careful, and elaborate.—Philadelphia Inquirer. We regard the two treatises already issued as the very best on human physi- ology which the English or any other language affords, and we recommend them with thorough confidence to students, practitioners, and laymen, as models of literary and scientific ability.—JV. Y. Medical Journal. We have found the style easy, lucid, and at the same time terse. The prac- tical and positive results of physiological investigation are succinctly stated, without, it would seem, extended discussion of disputed points.—Boston Medical and Surgical Journal. It is a volume which will be welcome to the advanced student, and as a work of reference.—The Lancet. The leading subjects treated of are presented in distinct parts, each of which is designed to be an exhaustive essay on that to which it refers.— Western Jour- nal of Medicine.
