CRITICAL COMMENDATION OF THIS WORK.
.4 We are convinced that this compendious Work, on the
important subject of Diet, wilt prove a valuable and accept-
able present to_the Public."-4Medical and Physical Journal.
" I f there were any one desideratum in English Literature
more urgently wanted than all others, that has hitherto un-
deniably been a Work, which should, with the skill and dis-
cernment of an able and experienced Physician, assemble for
popular use, all the dilates of ordinary discretion, general
experience, and professional observation in regard to the most
salutary use of those things which serve as the common ali-
ments of life. The prudent use of albuents.might happily
prevent two thirds of the diseases by which health is destroy-
ed. Dr. Nesbit is one of the few Medical Writers among our
contemporaries, who know how to unite science with lucid
and insinuating simplicity of manner; the formalities of
science are avoided, but its spirit is happily diffused through
the whole. In his present Work he has performed a service
which deserves the thanks of every good man zealous of pub-
lic utility.. No Family ought to neglect the perusal of a
Book so agreeable, and so interestingly instrudive."—Lon-
