REVIEWS Ole THE WORK.
"Curtis on Manhood.—This is a truly valuable work, and
should be in the hands of young and old."_ Sunday Times,"
23d March, 1856.
"The author has conferred a great boon by publishing this
little work, in which is described the source of those diseases
Which produce decline in youth or more frequently premature
old age."—" Daily Telegraph," March 27, 1856.
" This work, which for twenty years has stood the test of
professional criticism and empirical hostility, treats in a Plain
and sympathising manner on the various disqualifications
and
impediments arising from nervous excitement and de-
bility; and to invalids suffering from youthful errors and
txeesses it will be found valuable and useful."—Record.
