ON TRUE A: FALSE SPERMATORRH(EA,
with the View of distinguishing the Imaginary from the
Real Sufferers under this disease, and Correcting of wide-spread
Errors in relation to their Treatment and Cure.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.
"Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent pmts.
zal contributions to German medical literature. This is the first
time, he informs as, that be has addressed himself to the nou-medi-
dal reader. We trust this may not be the last, if he shall leteet any
other equally flagrant evil which it may he in his power to cor-
rect."—London Medical Gazette. " The tribe of ' Quiet Sympathisers,'
and ' Medical Friends,' are mercilessly exposed; and if this book
could find its way into the hands of those whe stiffer from the com•
plaint of which it treats, we are satisfied that many hundreds would
be saved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
;as 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 Spermatorrhaia, and to place the treat-
ment rpon a more rational and physiological basis. It is, therefore,
ikely to do much good."—Medical Circular.
