This work comprises leading questions on all the branches belonging to the course of study pursued by the dental student, and its object is to facilitate the study of dental science and its collateral sciences.
Some years ago the author published a small work embracing in an abridged form, questions on Dental Science, and the favor with which it was received by the students of his class, was such as to rapidly exhaust the limited edition, and induce him to prepare, when opportunity offered, a more complete series of questions embracing the entire curriculum of the dental student, and even that of the medical student so far as related to Anatomy, Physiology and Chemistry.
The present work, therefore, is the result of such an intention, and is presented with the hope that it may accomplish the object for which it has been prepared.

The object of this excellent work is to place before the student of pharmacy and medicine a compact course of analytical chemistry.
The distinguished author believing that the study of Qualitative Analysis should be preceded by some practical experience such as relates to the preparation of the important gases and a few of the salts, devotes Part First to the consideration of Hydrogen, Chlorine, Hydrochloric Acid, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Ammonia, Nitric Acid, Carbon Dioxide and the preparation of such salts as Potassium Chloride, Potassium and Sodium Tartrate, Ammonium Nitrate and Oxalate, Calcium Phosphate, Magnesium Sulphate, Carbonate and Oxide, Aluminium Hydrate, Ferrous Sulphate, Ferric Sulphate and Hydrate, Copper Sulphate and Lead Acetate. Part Second is devoted to Qualitative Analysis, and Part Third to Quantitative Analysis, together with a description of apparatus, and the processes of filtration, evaporation, crystallization, ignition, etc. The work extends over nearly one hundred pages, and is a valuable text-book for the student.
Chemical Problems.—By Dr. Karl Stammer. Translated from the second German edition, with explanations and answers, by W. S. Hoskinson, A. M., of Wittenberg College, Ohio. Publishers: P. Blackiston, Son & Co., Philadelphia. 1885. Price, 75 cents.

The text is in the form of questions to which answers are given at the end of the volume, which comprises one hundred and nine pages. Part First relates to the recognized elements, and Part Second to approximate ratios, temperature, atmospheric pressure and mixed problems, making a compact and useful text-book for the study of chemical problems.
Quiz Questions.—Course on Dental Pathological and Therapeutics, Philadelphia Dental College. Prof. J. Foster Flagg, D. D. S. Answered by William C. Foulks, D. D. S. Third edition, Revised and Enlarged. Publishers: The S. S. White Dental Manufacturing Company, Philadelphia, New York, Boston and Chicago.

This excellent series of questions and answers on Dental Pathology and Therapeutics is again offered to the dental profession as a work of reference in daily office practice, and is the only book that contains in a condensed and practical form the facts and principles of these subjects, as enunciated by Professor Flagg. Commencing with General Principles, these questions and answers relate to Deciduous Teeth, Pathological Dentition, Lancing, Permanent Teeth, Dental Caries, Sensitive Dentine, Galvanic Action, Pulp Protectors, Obtunding Applications, Pulp Capping, Pathological Conditions of Pulp, Dental Exostosis, Malformed Teeth, Periodontitis and Alveolar Abscess, the whole constituting a work of great value to all engaged in the practice of dentistry. The work is interleaved with blank pages for notes, etc., and gotten up in a neat and excellent style. We take great pleasure in commending this treatise as a valuable adjunct to the regular text-books of the profession.
