    “ Altogether, we have no hesitation in repeating our high estimate of the value of the work, the production of which confirms what has long been the opinion of the profession, that its author is the most erudite and skilful laryngologist of the present time.”—Edinburgh Medical Journal. “We can safely say of this, the completed work, that it is a marvel of skill, a monument of patient labour, and an evidence of that thought, care, and able observation which have made the name of Mackenzie famous for now nearly a quarter of a century.”—Birmingham Medical Review. “ The book is in no sense a compilation. Whilst giving proof of learning at once extensive and discriminating, it is, above all, a record of the author’s personal experience. As this brief notice itself shows, his task has been undertaken only after mature thought and prolonged practical study. The preface tells us how many years were required to produce a work conceived on so vast a scale, so replete with facts, so detailed and precise in its teaching.”— Union Medicate, Dec. 4, 1884. “ Taking this work on the Throat and Nose altogether, there can be but one opinion in regard to it. It is a credit to medical literature, and will always occupy a place among the standard works. As a text-book it is exhaustive and reliable ; in short, the best in our judgment which at present exists in any language.”—Boston Medical and Surgical Journal. By the same Author.
