DR. PA LNIF.It'S ILLUSTRATIONS OF MEDICINE.
This day is published. in S,o. price 101. boards,
POPULAR- ILLUSTRATIONS of MEDICINE.
By SHIRLEY PALLIER,

Loudon : printed for Baldwin and Cyadock.
1*- The +gents which destroy man, or excite permanent or tem-
porary disorders in the functions of his ♦arious organs, are treated
of in this work. and arranged Under the seven following heads,
viz.:—,floral and Irrellectual Agents—Physlcal— Intestinal—Re-
spiratory—Cutaneous— Atmospheric. and External Injuries. In
preparing the work, principally for the dissemination of popular
knowledge, the Author has not deemed it improper to relax some-
what from that unbending severity of style, which so signally be-
nehts the character of purely scientific writings, and sheds life and
grace on their nio,t intricate discussions : it may, therefore, it is
hoped, instruct the popular reader, while the young professional
student will find it useful in conveying a correct outline of the
subjects of his future practice.
