THE Generative System: AND ITS FUNCTIONS IN HEALTH AND DISEASE, BY JAMES GEORGE BEANEY, F.R.C.S E. Formerly on the Medical Staff of Her Majesty’s Military Forces, thoTurkiab Contingent, and Royal Victorian Artillery Regiment. Senior Surgeon to the Melbourne Hospital.

Bailliere, 104 Collins Street East, Melbourne. “ Will be universallly studied aqd appreciated by all true lovers of our fallen humanity, by the philanthropist, and by the legislator.”~iS'yd»fy Monthly Herald. “‘The Generative System’ takes a sweeping view of the danger into which bad example and uneducated instincts lead the youth of the Colony. Melbourne Aye. “ The manner in which it is got up is a credit both to the colony and to all concerned in it.”— Melbourne Aryan. “A work for men alone, relating as it does to matters of which they ought not to be in ignorance.”— Melbourne Daily Teleyraph. “Deals with an important subject, of w'-’ich nnn-professvnuil men might with advantage know m j.”—Melbourne Herald. “Contains all and every information it is' desirable a child of either s-x should know : judiciously used, it should become a safeguard against the many rooks found in the sea of life, upon which so many young people founder."— St. Anmud Mercury. “ It is an undoubted fact that more disease and misery is engendered in families in consequence of the ignorance that prevails about this subject, than from almost any other cause, even including excessive drinking We advocate the perusal of this work by all reasoning men and women.”— Wanyaratio, Dispatch. “Calculated to improve the knowledge and elevate the ideas of the masses.—Bendiyo Advertiser. “This work has been written with a desire to alleviate much of the misery caused by imperfect knowledge of the functions of the organs of reproduction. To those not familar with this important subject, it is clear that definite information of a physiohig cal character will be found of ineadmahle advantage, by supplying intelligent guidance in the conduct of sexual life, and to those we advise the perusal of so valuable a book.”— Marlborouyh Express. “The last new work goes elaborately into the evils, mental, moral, and social, connected with the violation of natural laws ; and it refers at length, to the carelessness of parents, and to the same fault in schoolmasters -in fact, the a-guments apply to all who have the care of youth of both saxes. It deals copiously with the laws of prevention of these evils, the causes of which do not often trouble the medical practitioner, whose chief duty, generally, consists in curing diseases. Dr Beaney takes a philosophical view of the causes that lead to certain dangers when the laws of health are violated. This makes his works, which are generally written plainly, but forcibly, and are supported by lengthy extracts from high authorities, so acceptable to the general reader, who, at the risk of being charged with prurient curiosity, feels desirous of looking into these important matters. We can recommend the work in particular to all classes, for none need bo shocked by examining for themselves.”— Pastoral Times. “Mr Beaney handles his subjects delicately and firmly, without being offensive ; he lays the bare facts and the consequences of early dissipation and folly, clearly before bis reader ; he gives the results of Jus long, varied, and extensive practices to the public, accompanied with good sound advice. Foremost amongst which is, ‘ Do not, in your suffering, and from a feeling of false delicacy, put your life, or, what is of more importance, your health in the hands of quacks ; but unbosom yourself to a respectable professional man.’ The works in question will repay any one for their pernsal, and, nn doubt, were the facta which he explains better understood by the multitudes, the annual bills of li goring death, blighted hopes, and mortality, would he, very considerably lessened.”— Murruruntli Times. “The Generative System, and its Functions in Health and Disease.— ’lbis work is a valuable addition to that class of medicallitcraturc which has, through false delicacy, been neglm-tid by medical men of standing and position, and therefore used and abused by charlatans. The volume contains .‘S2G p.ag'-s. Parents will find most valuable information in it. -bi-b 1 m v aid .a re,-,, .i .•• a family k a i bc.dtny state, when, without snob know- !
