Book Description
Excerpt from A Manual for the Practice of Surgery When the eminent publishers of this book invited me to write a work on the Practice of Surgery, under the impression that there was room for a new text-book on the subject, and within certain limits liberally left its execution entirely in my hands, with full permission to illustrate it as I liked, I gave the offer my serious consideration, well weighing its difficulties and its responsibilities. But when the Treasurer of the Hospital, to which I have the honor to belong, generously and kindly placed at my disposal the rich stores of in formation gathered within the walls of Guy's, in the shape of preparations, models, and drawings, I accepted the offer, and now present the result of my labors to the kind consideration of my professional brethren. That my task has not been completed up to the standard I had conceived I feel deeply conscious, although no pains or thought have been spared in its performance; but if the manner of the execution of the work be faulty, the matter I believe to be sound, for the practice I have inculcated has, in most points, been tested by experience. Throughout its composition I have tried to do full justice to the works of others, and by quotations have made them speak for me when I could; if I have failed to do this in all cases, it has been from want of space, for all through the work the object has been to give only what was essential, and to condense as much as possible. If I have drawn largely from the Guy's Museum to illustrate these pages, it has been because I found all I wanted within its walls, and possibly my readers will pardon me for having used my own material in preference to others', if they find it good. Should some of the opinions that have been expressed differ from those usually received, and the practice based upon them seem unusual, I must ask my readers to test them before they are condemned, for they have only been introduced after serious consideration. I have not consciously omitted any subject which comes under the notice of the general surgeon, although the rightly recognized specialties of eye, ear, and dental surgery have been excluded. To have given them in out line would have been to mislead, and to have done more would necessarily have added much to the size of the volume.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Manual of the Practice of Surgery IN preparing the third edition of my Manual of Surgery I have gone carefully through the text, revising it, and endeavouring to bring it up to the level of the present day. At the same time, the number of illustrations has been considerably increased, the Formulary has been enlarged, and many more references to it have been introduced into the text. The general arrangement and the classification of disease which have been adopted will be seen at a glance by reference to the Table of Contents. Those branches of Surgery which have undergone such rapid development of late years as to have become almost separate sciences - such, for example, as the Surgery of the Eye and of the Ear - I have considered only so far as a knowledge of them is essential to every practitioner. Each of these branches has called forth a special literature of its own, and to this I must refer those who desire fuller information upon these subjects. Ever since I was a student it has been my habit to make drawings of any cases of more than usual interest which came before me, and many of the illustrations which will be found in the following pages have been copied from sketches in my own portfolio. Some of the others have been taken from preparations in the Museum of Charing Cross Hospital, which were kindly placed at my service by the Medical Committee.

Book Description
Excerpt from Manual of the Principles and Practice of Operative Surgery The illustrations, though ordinary in kind, form an important fea ture of the work. They were selected for the purpose of illustrating special features in each case, and only such parts have been used as were essential for that object. They have been derived from many sources, as from the former work, from works on surgery, medical periodicals, and from manufacturers of instruments.2 A large num ber were specially drawn for the work, some of which are original studies of the artist.3 Due credit is given, as far as possible, to the source from which each was derived.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Practice of Surgery I have gone carefully through the text of this book, and have revised it so far as seemed necessary to keep it abreast of progress. To my-friends, the book reviewers, I am grateful for their kind reception of the first edition. I am myself a member of the brother hood; for I have been a reviewer for many years. I have read seventy reviews of this book, and feel that it has found favor beyond its deserts. The reviewers do not always agree with me; but, then, they do not agree with each other. Nevertheless, most of them have read my first preface, have understood my purpose. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Manual for Surgery: For Students and Physicians Although information has been drawn from many sources, most aid has been derived from the text-books of Da Costa, Tillmanns, and Rose and Carless, from the operative surgeries of Binnie, Bryant, and Treves, and from the systems of Ashhurst, Delbet and Le Dentu, and Von Bergmann, Von Bruns, and Von Mikulicz.
