SPEEMATOBEHCEA, IN ITS PHYSIOLOGICAL, MEDICAL AND LEGAL ASPECTS, By James Geo. Beaney, F.R.C.S. Formerly Surgeon to the Melbourne Hospita and Her Majesty's Troops during the war in the Crimea. Spermatorrhoea, with impotence and sterility, " are subjects of much greater practical importance than has been conceived by many, and often involve the happiness and perpetuation of families. Yet have they, by a sort of professional prudery, been either entirely overlooked by medical writers or very imperfectly discussed, and thereby relinquished to the irregular practitioner, or to the entirely unqualified empiric. In the present era of high refinement and of luxurious, if not vicious enjoyments, and under the influence of noxious plans and systems of education, instances are very numerous for which medical advice is required for the removal of the morbidly disqualifying conditions about to be considered, but is not resorted to so frequently as it ought to be. Since advice is thus often necessary, the ability of those from whom the community have a right to expect it, of the most judicious kind, should be equally great in providing it. There is every reason, also, to believe that it would be oftener after if the subject were known to be more fully entertained by the duly qualified members of the profession." — (Dr Copland's Medical Dictionary, vol. II.) " The only way by which some of the most important lunctional ailments and aberrant physiological states affecting humanity can be rescued from the grasp of the most disgusting and villanous quackery, and treated with benefit to the patient, is by the scientific and conscientious practitioner openly taking them under his own charge/' — Lancet, 30th May, 1857. . We are therefore glad that Dr Beaney, a Melbourne surgeon of established reputation, has had the courage to grapple with this subject, and by the publication of this work point out a way of escape to sufferers from the injuries on their constitution, and the drain made on their purse, by impudent charlatans. To such sufferers we commend a perusal of Mr Beaney's volume. — Telegbaph (Victoria). Agents for New Zealand — MESSRS WISE, Dunedin.
