The Disorders of Digestion: their Consequences and Treatment. By T.

Lander Brunton. (Maomillan.)—Something less than a fourth of this volume ia occupied with three " Lettsomialt Lectures," delivered by the author before the Medical Society ; the remainder is made up of various papers on the same subject, read at various times. It is not within our provinoe to review a book of this kind, but we may say that, teohnioal as it necessarily is in many parts, it 711 a book which s lay reader may study with interest, and, if he needs advice and suggestion as to the management of digestion, with profit. The public of dyspeptics is, we fear, one large enough to give a very remunerative circulation to any book that deals intelligently with their cure.
