Reading edition

The works which I have read and found most useful are Dr. Prosper Lucas’s great work, ‘Traité de l’Hérédité Naturelle,’ 1847; Mr. W. Sedgwick, in ‘British and Foreign Medico-Chirurg. Review,’ April and July, 1861, and April and July, 1863: Dr. Garrod on Gout is quoted in these articles. Sir Henry Holland, ‘Medical Notes and Reflections,’ 3rd edit., 1855. Piorry, ‘De l’Hérédité dans les Maladies,’ 1840. Adams, ‘A Philosophical Treatise on Hereditary Peculiarities,’ 2nd edit., 1815. Essay on ‘Hereditary Diseases,’ by Dr. J. Steinan, 1843. See Paget in ‘Medical Times,’ 1857, p. 192, on the Inheritance of Cancer; Dr. Gould, in ‘Proc. of American Acad. of Sciences,’ Nov. 8th, 1853, gives a curious case of hereditary bleeding in four generations. Harlan, ‘Medical Researches,’ p. 593.
