" The rapidity with which a second edition has followed the first in little over a year, is the best possible proof of the success of this book.

It will prove of most value to those recently qualified, but useful and suggestive to almost every- one. The general arrangement is to take the various parts of the body one after another, and describe the abnormalities of signs and symptoms associated with each. Separate chapters are devoted to the Face and Head, Hands and Arms, Feet and Legs, and so on, with special chapters interpolated on subjects that need fuller treatment, such as Hemiplegia and Convulsions.

The grouping is unlike that which is ordinarily employed, and is there- fore striking. In the chapter on the Hands and Arms there are some good photo- graphs and skiagams of gout and rheumatoid arthritis, and progressive muscular atrophy. Dr. Hare's large clinical experience and knowledge of students come out well in the third chapter on the Feet and Legs, where the usual difficulties of the different forms of paralysis are made as clear as possible by good plates and tables. ... " The description of the diseases of the eye is very full and good, and the diffi- cult subject of diplopia is well treated. There is a long and elaborate chapter on the skin, giving practically every abnormality met with, and good coloured
