Acton on the Urinary Organs.

A Practical Treatise on Diseases of the Urinary and Generative Organs in both Sexes. Part I.—Non-specific Disease. Part II.—Syphilis. By William Acton, late Surgeon to the Islington Dispensary, and formerly Externe at the Female Venereal Hospital, Paris. From the second London edition. With additional Illustrations and Colored Plates. One vol. 8vo. $4.00.

This work is intended to be used by the student as a complete Text-book on the subjects of which it treats; and, at the same time, to supply data for the surgeon desirous of learning the most modern treatment of the protean forms of Syphilis, as well as materially to assist the practitioner who, in the witness-box, is liable to be cross-examined on many of the most intricate questions of generation, absorption, or contagion.
