" We never commence the perusal of works on this malady with-
out preparing ourselves to meet most appalling descriptions of human
sufferings. It was, therefore, a most agreeable surprise to us to
find this error (as it appears to us) carefully avoided in this work,
and the subject treated in a common sense, and truly practical
manner. . . No medical man should undertake the treatment
of Spermatorrhcca without first consulting this work."—Medical
