_Dr. Goodeve._--“I have no hesitation in saying that the present edition is for many reasons superior to its predecessors. It is written very carefully, and with much knowledge and experience on the author’s part, whilst it possesses the great advantage of bringing up the subject to the present level of Medical Science.”
_The Medical Times and Gazette_, in an article upon this work and Moore’s “Family Medicine for India,” says:--“The two works before us are in themselves probably about the best examples of medical works written for non-professional readers. The style of each is simple, and as free as possible from technical expressions. The modes of treatment recommended are generally those most likely to yield good results in the hands of laymen; and throughout each volume the important fact is kept constantly before the mind of the reader, that the volume he is using is but a poor substitute for personal professional advice, for which it must be discarded whenever there is the opportunity.”
BEING A COMPLETE ACCOUNT OF THE REVENUE AND COLLECTORATE ADMINISTRATION IN ALL DEPARTMENTS.
_With Special Reference to the Work and Duties of a District Officer in Bengal._
“In eleven chapters Mr. Phillips gives a complete epitome of the civil, in distinction from the criminal, duties of an Indian Collector. The information is all derived from personal experience. A polemical interest runs through the book, but this does not detract from the value of the very complete collections of facts and statistics given.”--_London Quarterly Review._
“It contains much information in a convenient form for English readers who wish to study the working of our system in the country districts of India.”--_Westminster Review._
“A very handy and useful book of information upon a very momentous subject, about which Englishmen know very little.”--_Pall Mall Gazette._
