with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers froza Debility of the
ilenerative System, or Sexual Hypochondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD
"Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the nor-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall
detect any other equally flagrant evil which it may be in his
.ower o correct."—London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851.
nromised in a former number that we should recur to this
w)rc, in order to exhibit its aim more clearly. The author lashes
with great severity the impostors who make a livelihood by preying
on the credulity of the public. The tribe of ' Quiet symathisers,'
and ' Medical Friends, are mercilessly exposed; and if this book
could find its way into the hands of those who suffer from th com-
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many h lndreds Would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much movies...... This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhma, and to place the treat-
ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1552.
