=Jahr's New Manual= of Homoeopathic Practice; edited, with
Annotations, by A. Gerald Hull, M.D. From the last Paris edition. This
is the fourth American edition of a very celebrated work, written in
French by the eminent Homoeopathic Professor Jahr, and it is
considered the best practical compendium of this extraordinary science
that has yet been composed. After a very judicious and instructive
introduction, the work presents a Table of the Homoeopathic Medicines,
with their names in Latin, English and German; the order in which they
are to be studied, with their most important distinctions and clinical
illustrations of their symptoms and effects upon the various organs and
functions of the human system. The second volume embraces an elaborate
of Analysis of the indications in disease, of the medicine adapted to
cure, and a Glossary of the technics used in the work, arranged so
luminously as to form an admirable guide to every medical student. The
whole system is here displayed with a modesty of pretension, and a
scrupulosity in statement, well calculated to bespeak candid
investigation. This laborious work is indispensable to the students and
practitioners of Homoeopathy, and highly interesting to medical and
scientific men of all classes. Complete Symptomatology and Repertory, 2
vols., boun
