THE DISEASES PECULIAR TO WOMEN,

BY SAMUEL ASHWELL, M.D.

Obstetric Physician and Lecturer to Guy's Hospital. - PART 1, Functional Diseases, Price 7s. PART II, Organic Diseases, Price 8s.

"Situated as is Dr. Ashwell in extensive practice, and at the head of the Obstetric Department of a large Hospital, it could not be but that his work must contain very valuable information-the results of great experience. The book is full of important information and excellent practical description."-Dublin Medical Journal.

"It is sound and sensible in its doctrines."-Medical Gazette.

"The contributions of Dr. Ashwell coming as they do, armed with the authority of his personal observation and great experience, are eminently entitled to consideration. Throughout every page we have only the result of the author's own observation; and of the work, so far as it has yet been published, we entertain a high opinion, believing that it is characterized by accurate observation and sound judgment."-Edinburgh Journal of Medical Science.

The Concluding Part will be Published shortly.

"Statesmen and Philanthropists, Humanity and Christianity, owe to Mr. Sampson a debt of gratitude, for having placed the question of capital punishment, and the Insanity of Criminals upon intelligible principles, which if adopted will put an end to the doubts and difficulties in which these topics have been hitherto involved, and will prepare the way for some rational and satisfactory legislation."-Law Times.
