a complete exposure of the system of terrorism and extortion pursued
by the advettising quacks of the metropolis towards those who are
credulous enough to seek their aid.
•• 's knew» to English readers by his frequent practi-
cal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
titre, informs us, that he has addressed himself to the nos-medi-
sal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall ietect any
other evally flagrant evil which it may be in his ,ower to cor-
rect."—London Merl:cal Gazette. " The tribe of Quiet Sympathisers,'
Medical Friandi,' are mercilessly exposed ; and if this book
.cold Ind its way into the hands of those who suffer from the corn-
:quint cf which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
us saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
ess importance, though It is that which the quacks most prize—
much money ......This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
enrlrical system of treating Spennatorrhma, and to place the treat-
ment upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
like y :,0 do much good."
