ON TRUE & FALSE SPERMATORRH(EA,
with the View to the Correction or wide-spread Errors
in rel'itlon to the Treatment and Cure of the Impuissant and Sexual
Hypochondriacs,
Translated from 'he German of Dr. PICKFORD.
T)whch is added, an ESSAY on SEXUAL DEBILITY, by the

Editor.

• VT. Picktore 's known to English readers by his frequent practi-
;tl contribution, to German medical literature. This is the first
,ne, he informs as, that he has addressed himseli to the non-medi-
,.o -eader. We trust thi• may not be the last, if he shall etect any
titer equally flagrant evil which it may be in his ewer to correct."
—London Medical gazette, May .tn. ISM. The tribe of 'Quiet Sympa-
thisers,' Ind • >iedical Friends,'are mercilessly exposed and if this book
.tould find its way into the wands of those woo sans' from the corn-
'taint of which it tretts, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
•e saved much needless suffering ot body and mind, and what Is of
em importance, thomat it is that which the quacks most prize—
ouch money --This volume is well qualified to put an end to the
empirical system of treating Spermatorrhcea, and to placs the treat-
mhnt upon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
likely to do much good."—Medical Circular, June 16, 1852.
