ON TRUE az FALSE SPERMA.TORRHCEA,
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
In relation to the Treatment and Care of Sufferers from Debility of the
Generative System, nr Sexual Hypochondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD
"Dr. Pickford 's 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 adoressed himself to the note-medi-
cal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall detect any
ether equally flagrant evil which it may be in his aower to correct."
London Medical Gazette, May 30, 1851. The tribe of 'Quiet Syma-
thisers.'and ' Medical Friends,'are mercilessly exposed ; and If this book
could find its way into the hands of those who gaffer from the corn-
Aleut of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
,
importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—
much money This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to place the treat-
livint upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."—Modical Circular, June 16. 1852.
