THE ORGAN OF THE JEWELRY AND OPTICAL TRADES, 19TH AND BROWN STS., PHILADELPHIA, U.S.A. * * * * * PHYSIOLOGIC OPTICS Ocular Dioptrics--Functions of the Retina--Ocular Movements and Binocular Vision BY DR. M. TSCHERNING Adjunct-Director of the Laboratory of Ophthalmology at the Sorbonne, Paris AUTHORIZED TRANSLATION BY CARL WEILAND, M.D. Former Chief of Clinic in the Eye Department of the Jefferson College Hospital, Philadelphia, Pa. This is the crowning work on physiologic optics, and will mark a new era in optical study. Its distinguished author is recognized in the world of science as the greatest living authority on this subject, and his book embodies not only his own researches, but those of the several hundred investigators who, in the past hundred years, made the eye their specialty and life study. Tscherning has sifted the gold of all optical research from the dross, and his book, as now published in English with many additions, is the most valuable mine of reliable optical knowledge within reach of ophthalmologists. It contains 380 pages and 212 illustrations, and its reference list comprises the entire galaxy of scientists who have made the century famous in the world of optics. The chapters on Ophthalmometry, Ophthalmoscopy, Accommodation, Astigmatism, Aberration and Entoptic Phenomena, etc.--in fact, the entire book contains so much that is new, practical and necessary that no refractionist can afford to be without it. Bound in Cloth. 380 Pages, 212 Illustrations. Price, $3.50 (14s. 7d.)
